Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is hosting Alice Weidel, the Alternative for Germany party's candidate for chancellor, a rare meeting between a European leader and Germany’s far-right party.

An endorsement from Elon Musk, 5 million euros in financial donations this year alone, and now an invitation to meet Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban: once isolated, the far-right Alternative for Germany has a growing number of friends.

Emboldened by his 'dear friend' US President Donald Trump's return to power, Hungary's nationalist leader has vowed to 'occupy Brussels' by bringing together far-right parties in the European Parliament.

Viktor Orban met with Alice Weidel, co-leader of Alternative for Germany (AfD), in Hungary’s opulent Carmelite Monastery.
