Hungary’s Prime Minister Peter Magyar will meet European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Brussels on Friday in his first top-level talks with EU leaders since his election victory in April, as he seeks to unlock billions of euros in frozen EU funds.
The meeting comes during Magyar’s two-day visit to Brussels, his first official trip to the EU’s seat since his Tisza Party won a two-thirds election victory in a high-turnout vote that ended Viktor Orban’s 16-year rule.
