LIVE: Vice President JD Vance delivers remarks in Budapest, Hungary

Published | Video Starts at 15:44

Energy costs are higher in almost every country in Europe than they are in Hungary. That's because Viktor Orban has fought for energy security while most European political leaders have not. I see the way those same leaders sneer at the normal, God fearing people of Hungary. (15:44–15:49)
