The Hungarian PM has welcomed the first decrees signed by the new US president reversing policies of the previous administration
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has endorsed the executive orders signed by US President Donald Trump immediately after his inauguration on Monday, claiming they will transform the world.
Trump signed a slew of mandates on his first day back in office, aimed at reversing a number of policies pursued by the administation of Joe Biden.
Orban, a strong supporter of Trump, took to X on Tuesday to congratulate the newly inaugurated US president, remarking that his executive orders would “transform not only the US, but the entire world.”
He further commented that with Trump’s return to office, “the rebellion against woke liberal democracy has entered a new stage” and urged “patriotic forces to occupy Brussels.”
Orban, who views Trump’s return to the White House as a game-changer for US-EU relations, believes the new president will bring a more conservative shift to US policies, creating opportunities to challenge EU leadership.
Speaking in Budapest on Monday, hours before Trump’s swearing-in, the Hungarian leader called for sensible EU leaders to recognize a shift toward a “new world order,” declaring that “soon, the sun will shine differently over Brussels.”
According to Orban, Trump’s policies could deepen divisions between Washington and Brussels, where the EU leadership continues to advocate for liberal policies on migration, family, and gender issues.
Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto echoed Orban’s sentiments, stating that Trump’s initial executive actions indicate an end to “pro-war and pro-migration madness” and the beginning of “the era of peace, security, national sovereignty and common sense.”
The flurry of Trump’s presidential mandates incorporates various measures to ramp up security, including declaring a national emergency at the southern border, designating drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, as well as ending automatic birthright citizenship for children born to parents who are neither US citizens nor lawful permanent residents.
Trump has repealed 78 executive orders signed by his predecessor, Joe Biden, including at least a dozen measures supporting ‘racial equity’ and combating discrimination against gay and transgender people.
Regarding international agreements, Trump launched a US withdrawal from the World Health Organization and from the Paris Climate Agreement.
The measures, which reflect Trump’s campaign pledge to restore what he has described as “common sense” governance, with a focus on national security and traditional values, elicited mixed reactions, drawing both praise and censure globally.
