The prime minister of Hungary, which holds the rotating Presidency of the Council of the EU, is in Moscow for talks as part of his peace mission. Viktor Orban arrived in the Russian capital on Friday after a visit to Kyiv. As Magyar Nemzet reported earlier one topic of discussion between Putin and Orban naturally is Ukraine.

RIA later also reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin received the Hungarian prime minister in the Kremlin on Friday. The Russian leader said that at the meeting he will share the details of Moscow's proposals for a peaceful settlement with Ukraine and expects to learn the details of the Hungarian plan. Putin said he was happy to welcome the prime minister in Moscow. He also clarified that Orban had arrived as the prime minister of the country which is holding the rotating EU presidency.
Viktor Orban thanked the Russian Federation president for the welcome and noted that "this meeting is more unique than the previous one", RIA reported.
Thank you for welcoming me in the midst of such a difficult situation. I have to say, Mr President, that we are running out of countries that can talk to both sides in the war. Hungary is slowly becoming the only country in Europe that will communicate with everyone. I wanted to take this opportunity to talk to you about important issues. I would like to hear your views on some issues that are important for Europe,
Hungary's PM announced at this stop on his peace mission.

Peter Szijjarto put out a post on Facebook about the Moscow trip. The Hungarian foreign minister wrote:
The last two and a half years have shown that the war in our neighborhood has no solution on the battlefield. In order to put an end to human suffering, a ceasefire and peace negotiations are needed as soon as possible. We hope that today's meeting in Moscow will bring peace closer.
As part of his peace mission, Viktor Orban also recently met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv to discuss bringing about peace to end the Russian-Ukrainian war, as Magyar Nemzet reported earlier.
