Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban traveled to the US state of Florida on Thursday, where he met with former President Donald Trump following a NATO summit in Washington.
Orban met with Trump at the former president's beachside Mar-a-Lago estate and the Hungarian leader shared a photo of the two on X, formerly Twitter, with the caption: "We discussed ways to make peace.
Orban, who is widely considered to have the warmest relations with the Kremlin among all EU leaders, made an unannounced visit to Kyiv last week, where he held talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, suggesting a truce.
Some observers interpreted the visit as a sign that Hungary, which took over the bloc's six-month rotating presidency earlier this month, might be taking steps toward the pro-Ukraine stance of the EU mainstream.
DW correspondent in Brussels Bernd Riegert said Orban's meeting with Trump would not help Ukraine as EU leaders fear Russia could get the impression that the West is divided.
The Hungarian prime minister has also openly supported Trump's candidacy in this year's US presidential election, expressing hope that the Republican would be able to bring an end to Russia's war in Ukraine.
