The Trump administration has invited former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán to appoint him to the position of UN Secretary General, the Wall Street Journal writes. As the publication notes, the White House relies on the fact that such a candidate can enlist the support of Russia and China. "When the US, Russia and China want the same thing in the UN Security Council, they usually get it," the material said. Orban was interested in the offer, but emphasized that he would enter the race only if victory was guaranteed. A possible candidacy could be announced after the midterm elections in the United States. We remind you that the powers of the current UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres will expire at the end of 2026. Telegram | Max | Read exclusively.
