"Trump's Embrace of Orbán Sparks Debate Over Funding Ukraine"

After Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán claimed that former President Donald Trump said he would suspend U.S. military aid to Ukraine, the Trump campaign reiterated Trump's stance that European nations should pay more of the cost of the Russia-Ukraine war. Trump has been ambiguous on the issue of funding for Ukraine, but has urged Congress to stop funding Ukraine until the Biden family was investigated. This comes amid recent backlash Trump faced for saying he wouldn't protect a NATO nation that didn't contribute enough defense funds and his close association with Orbán, who has championed an "illiberal democracy" and faced criticism for his views on immigrants and same-sex couples.
