This happened upon the arrival of the Turkish president in Budapest. Viktor Orbán surprised him with a gift – a horse, – “A gift from one horse nation to another horse nation: Aristocrat, a stallion of the Nonius breed from the Mezehedish horse farm,” he wrote on Facebook and accompanied the post with a photo.
In return, he received an electric car from Recep Erdogan.
The two demonstrated a serious warming of relations. This is Erdogan’s second visit to Hungary in the last few months. The official occasion is the 100th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, but the focus is on the subject of Sweden’s membership in NATO – which neither Turkey nor Hungary has yet ratified.
“For Hungary, Turkey is very important. Hungary has no security without Turkey. We cannot stop the migration that threatens us without their help. The only country that was able to achieve some result in the direction of peace between Ukraine and Russia was Turkey – with the grain deal,” Orban specified.
