MOSCOW, Oct 20 (Reuters) – The Kremlin said on Monday that Budapest was chosen as the venue for a summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump because Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has warm ties with Trump and constructive ties with Putin. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that work was only just beginning on the summit, which would be aimed at advancing a resolution to the Ukraine conflict, and developing relations between Russia and the United States.
