Hungarian Premier Viktor Orban
said Tuesday Interior Minister Matteo Salvini "is my hero" ahead
of a meeting between the two in Milan.
"I'd like to meet him personally. he is my hero," said Orban
as he left a Milan restaurant where he had lunch ahead of the
meeting.
"He is a companion of destiny of mine, I'm very curious to
know his personality.
"I'm a great admirer and I have some experiences that I could
perhaps share with him. I have that feeling".
Orban said Tuesday he had asked his friend, former Italian
premier Silvio Berlusconi, for permission to meet Salvini.
"Do you support the fact that I should meet Salvini?" Orban
said he had asked Berlusconi.
"'Certainly', he replied to me," said the Hungarian premier.
