"The prime minister and the president have a very, very close personal and working relationship," Rubio said at a press conference.

Rubio met on Sunday with another Trump-friendly leader, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico.

Orbán's Fidesz party is facing headwinds in public opinion. Challenger Péter Magyar drummed his message this weekend that "Hungary's place is in Europe" when his Tisza party kicked off the election campaign.
