There are reports you're on your way to Florida, Mr. Prime Minister, to meet our former President Donald Trump next week. Can you comment on that? You know, first of all, I respect him very much. That's the personal part of it. I like Mavericks, and he's like that. One of the most boring elements of my profession is that the leader is getting more and more boring. So we need refreshing you guys. And, you know, because you know the political elite reproduce itself. If you look at the speeches, the logic of argument, the literature they refer to, all that kind of thing is very much the same. So I'm very happy that somebody is coming from outside. And he is that kind of man, a mother, as we say, probably understandable term here as well. So that's good for our profession. Because political leadership is for everybody. It's the most competitive job. If always the professors and intellectuals and all that kind of guys are part of the elite, you know, it's not good. All kinds of different people, if they have talent, should play a role in that. Are you going to see him in Florida next week? Yes. Sorry, but there's another point as well. I'm also convinced that if at the time of breaking out of Russian invasion on Ukraine, Trump would have been the President of the United States. There will be no war now, I'm absolutely sure. So a strong President of the United States can stop any war which somehow related to Europe, I'm sure. And if I try to understand what kind of chances we have for the peace, the only serious chance for peace now, if he's able to come back and to make a peace, that's my only hope. Otherwise, the war between Ukraine and Russia will belong, getting closer and closer to Hungary and creating more and more strong dilemmas for the European politics. So Trump back is a precondition for strong and quick peace in the European continent. European continent, so that's the reason I'm always positive to cooperate with.
