Hungary's new Prime Minister Peter Magyar meets French President Emmanuel Macron at the Élysée Palace on Wednesday, as the two leaders look to strengthen European support for Ukraine following the end of Viktor Orbán's 16-year rule.

Emmanuel Macron and Peter Magyar "will discuss key European issues, notably support for Ukraine and the continuation of sanctions against Russia, European security and defence, strengthening European competitiveness, and preparations for the next multiannual financial framework," the French presidency said on Tuesday.
