After Kiev, Moscow: Hungarian Prime Minister and President-in-Office of the European Union Viktor Orban is appearing today before Russian President Vladimir Putin to do the same thing he did with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky: propose mediation to end the conflict in Ukraine.
Immediately after the announcement of the trip, the outgoing President of the European Council Charles Michel gave a dry “stop”: “The rotating EU presidency has no mandate to engage with Russia on behalf of the EU.
