Hungary is ready to host a meeting between the presidents of Russia and the United States.

This was stated by Hungary’s Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó.

He noted that Budapest is prepared to receive the Russian and American leaders at any time, and that this has been confirmed to both Moscow and Washington.

“As we understand it, in both capitals, if there is any issue that does not cause disagreement, it is the venue for the meeting, and for us this is, of course, a great honor,” Szijjártó added.

At the end of November, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán told Russian President Vladimir Putin during a meeting in the Kremlin that Hungary is ready to provide a venue for talks on resolving the conflict in Ukraine. According to him, Budapest is interested in peace and sincerely hopes that the recently announced peace initiatives will finally lead to it.
