Joe Biden's Budapest ambassador David Pressman tells the Financial Times that Orban's foreign policy is based on fantasies that “harm NATO and advance the interests of the Kremlin”.

That Hungary has not approved Sweden's NATO application, that the country does not want to support the war in Ukraine and that Viktor Orbáns has met with Russian President Vladimir Putin are some things that the US are dissatisfied with.
