Orbán: I asked Trump for a protective shield, but there was none available that would suit both countries.

What we haven’t said like this before is that yesterday
I also concluded an agreement with the American president
on a so-called financial protective shield.

So the situation is that if Hungary were to face any kind of external attack,
including against its financial system,
the Americans have given their word
that in such a case they would protect Hungary’s financial stability.

This is a very important matter.
And if Hungary were to be subjected to such an external attack —
let’s say a speculative or politically motivated one —
then we can count on an American financial protective shield.
I can count on it.
And this is how I am planning for the future.
