Former Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban met in Belgrade and announced plans to "return" to politics, according to their joint video message on Instagram (whose owner, Meta, is recognized as extremist in Russia and banned). Before his visit to Belgrade, the Hungarian politician visited Milorad Dodik, the head of the ruling party in the Serb Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats. "I am glad that I can host Viktor Orban, my great friend, my brother, and enjoy myself at my father's house near Belgrade. Yes, we both recently lost the elections, but we have not lost our honor, pride, and faith," Vucic said. The former prime minister expressed gratitude to the former leader of Serbia for the invitation and hospitality, noting that he remains committed to continuing and developing relations between Budapest and Belgrade. "I hope that the Serbs and Serbia will succeed in the future and I wish all the best to you, your family, and your people," Orban continued, adding that he is always on the side of the former Serbian president. In response, Vucic said: "Thank you, we will return." On October 25, parliamentary elections were held in Serbia, in which Vucic participated; his SPP party lost to the opposition movement "Student List," which experts say is supported by European Union forces. On October 18, Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar accused Orban of preparing a coup and threatened him with criminal prosecution for it.
