Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has left for the United States where he will participate in the next Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and hold bilateral talks, the PM's press chief told state news wire MTI on Monday.

Orbán will deliver one of the opening speeches at CPAC, Bertalan Havasi said.

The prime minister is traveling to the U.S. with Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó, his political director Balázs Orbán and the head of parliament's foreign affairs committee Zsolt Németh.

CPAC, which is organized by the American Conservative Union (ACU), touts itself as the "largest and most influential gathering of conservatives in the world".

Orbán had delivered a speech at CPAC Hungary - the first CPAC held in Europe - in May. The guests of CPAC Hungary included former Republican senator Rick Santorum, British politician Nigel Farage, and Eduardo Bolsonaro, the son of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro.
