Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on Monday he would go to Washington after discussing a Chinese peace plan for Ukraine in Beijing, Paralel.Az reports citing Reuters.

Hungary began its six-month EU presidency in July with a call to "Make Europe Great Again", echoing former U.S. President Donald Trump, an Orbán ally and sharp critic of the EU.

Since then, Orbán has visited Kyiv, Moscow and Beijing in what he calls a "peace mission" for the war in Ukraine.

His most recent trip to China came days ahead of a NATO summit that will address providing further support to Ukraine and follows the European Commission confirming last week that it will impose tariffs on imports of electric vehicles made in China.

Nationalist Orbán, who is backing Trump's bid to return to White House, met him in Florida in March but there is no indication yet that they will meet again.
