Ties between Hungary and Kyrgyzstan have become increasingly close since Hungary started building relations with the fast developing central Asian region in good time, and has benefitted a lot from it already, Péter Szijjártó, the minister of foreign affairs and trade, said on Friday.
The ministry cited Szijjártó as saying on the occasion of the Kyrgyz president’s visit to Hungary that trade turnover between the two countries was record high last year, and had significantly grown this year.
Hungarian companies are increasingly successful in the Kyrgyzstan market, including in the areas of the health industry and pharmaceuticals, food processing and the sowing seed sector, he said.

He welcomed the fact that a Kyrgyz-Hungarian development fund set up with 16 million dollars two years ago had successfully financed two joint investment projects in the machine industry and animal farming, adding that a hydropower investment project was currently being planned.
He said Hungary highly appreciated Kyrgyzstan’s role in the global fight against terrorism, and supported Kyrgyzstan’s application for non-permanent membership in the UN Security Council.
Szijjártó also said that both countries belonged to the global pro-peace majority as regards the war in Ukraine.

So what? At least these “authoritarian” states don’t demand we let in millions of third-world invaders, destroying our history, our identity, and our values in the process. Nor are they demanding we indoctrinate our kids that a man can be a woman and a woman can be a dog. Nor are they demanding we set our quality of life back two centuries in order to fight Climate Change™.
Yeah, I’ll take these “dictatorships” over the U.S. and E.U.rotrash any day of the week.
