Cameron, who stepped down in 2016 after triggering the Brexit referendum, often shared Orbán's skepticism of the EU, notably when they both opposed Jean-Claude Juncker's election as European Commission President in 2014.

Cameron's reentry into politics comes with a major cabinet reshuffle by UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
