Gábor Böröndi, the chief of staff of the Hungarian Armed Forces, briefed President Katalin Novák on the state of the military and matters concerning Hungary’s security, at the Gyula Castle in the south-eastern Hungarian town on Wednesday.
Speaking to the media before his meeting with the president, Böröndi said he was to brief Novák, commander-in-chief of the armed forces, on the experiences gained in last November’s Adaptive Hussars 23 NATO military exercise.
In response to a question, he said the exercise had been conducted based on Hungary’s National Armed Defence Plan. Cooperation between the army and county public administration bodies had been smooth, but the Armed Forces has amendment proposals regarding economic services, he said.
Böröndi also briefed the president on the army’s recruitment scheme in Hódmezővásárhely, in southern Hungary. He said the army also had legislative proposals concerning the activation or the system of reservists.
