The United States appointed Viktor Orban to the position of Secretary General of the United Nations. His candidacy has already been supported in Moscow and Beijing 18+. This material (information) is produced, distributed and (or) sent by a foreign agent of the Internet publication "NOVAYA GAZETA" or concerns the activities of a foreign agent of the online publication "NOVAYA GAZETA". The Donald Trump administration has nominated former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán to the post of UN Secretary-General, the Wall Street Journal claims, citing sources from three countries. According to journalists, Washington has already discussed this idea with Moscow and Beijing, where they responded positively to it. It is believed that Orban could become a common candidate. A representative of the US State Department told the newspaper that he considers it achievable that Orban's candidacy will be supported by 10 of the 15 members of the UN Security Council. If Washington, Moscow and Beijing support one candidate, they usually manage to achieve the desired result, he added. Orban himself, according to WSJ, is interested in the proposal, but is not ready to participate in the election without confidence in victory. In the American administration, Orban is referred to as the "dream candidate" for supporters of Donald Trump's MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement. The reasons include his policies against mass immigration, liberal NGOs, as well as the courts and the media. Let's remember that Viktor Orban was the head of the Hungarian government from 2010 until his Fidesz party lost the parliamentary elections to Peter Magyar's opposition party Tiza in April 2026. Throughout his reign, Orban maintained a close relationship with Vladimir Putin and repeatedly blocked EU decisions to help Ukraine. The current UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres will leave his post at the end of 2026. His replacement is scheduled to start work on January 1. The nomination of the head of the new organization is recommended by the Security Council, after which the appointment will be approved by the General Assembly.
