French far-right leader Marine Le Pen testifies before the parliamentary inquiry committee on foreign interference, which is investigating potential links between her National Rally party and Russia. At the centre of the investigation is a 9.4 million euro loan her party took out from a Czech-Russian bank, which is still being repaid. "If it had committed me to anything, I wouldn't have signed this loan," Le Pen insists.
The two far-right politicians played down their differences and found common ground in virulent attacks against the European Union's "hegemony."
Orban and Le Pen will hold a joint press conference from Budapest at 15:00 CEST.
