The article discusses the dilemma faced by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who is a close ally of former US President Donald Trump. Orban is set to visit Washington, but he is currently in disagreement with the US over the issue of Russian oil. The European Union has imposed sanctions on Russian oil in response to the country's invasion of Ukraine. However, Hungary has been exempted from these sanctions, as it is heavily dependent on Russian oil imports. This has caused tension between Orban and the US, which has been leading the effort to isolate Russia economically. Orban's visit to Washington comes at a time when he must balance his relationship with Trump, who has been a staunch supporter of his, and the US government's stance on the Russian oil issue. The article suggests that Orban's decision on this matter will have significant implications for his political and diplomatic standing, both in Europe and the US.
