US official Rubio visits Hungary and Slovakia to support pro-Trump leaders

Marco Rubio, a US official, visited Hungary and Slovakia to meet with leaders Viktor Orbán and Robert Fico. He told Orbán that his success is important for US interests and that the US wants him to continue in power ahead of Hungary's elections.

Donald Trump has also endorsed Orbán, calling him a 'true friend.' The visits are seen as an effort to bolster ties with European leaders who are politically aligned with Trump.
