According to the U.S. leader, he likes the future prime minister of Hungary.
"I think the new prime minister will do a good job—he's a good person," Trump said.
At the same time, the U.S. president doesn't know whether it would have made more of a difference if he had gone to campaign for Orbán instead of Vance.
"He (Orbán. — Ed.) was way behind. I wasn't that involved in this matter. Although Viktor is a good person," said the U.S. leader.
Trump also stated that Mátyás was previously a member of Orbán's Fidesz party and shares similar views on immigration.
