“If you look at Viktor Orban, he wants to see no wars, and I don’t want to see wars,” Donald Trump told Timcast in an interview. Miklos Szantho, head of the Center for Fundamental Rights in Budapest, published the interview on Facebook on Tuesday.
The former president and Republican presidential candidate recalled in the interview that during his presidency, the United States did not take part in wars, except for the one against the Islamic State (ISIS), but “we completed it one hundred percent”.
I don’t want to see wars. I think it’s so horrible, it’s so unnecessary, and so costly in terms of lives and money – in that order – and it destroys these countries,
the former US president said.
He stressed that the war is destroying culture in Ukraine, for example, and had he been the president at the time, the war in Ukraine and the October 7 attack on Israel would never have happened.
Speaking about Hungary’s prime minister, Donald Trump said that “Viktor Orban of Hungary, the leader of the country, is called a strongman, but who cares he’s a strongman or not a strongman”.
He’s a very powerful guy, he said the problem the world has is that Donald Trump is no longer president,
he said.
if you look at Viktor Orban, he wants to see no wars, and I don’t want to see wars,
