FM Szijjártó talks about “Golden Age” to come in US-Hungary relationship
Change language:
Cooperation between Hungary and the US stands before “great opportunities and a new golden age after the nearly unprecedented destruction wrought by former ambassador David Pressman”, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said in Budapest on Friday.
According to a ministry statement, Péter Szijjártó said in an interview with commercial news channel HírTV that Pressman had “pushed Hungarian-US bilateral cooperation to a historic low which is especially apparent after they thrived under former ambassador David Cornstein.”
Szijjártó said cooperation was on the verge of a “new golden age” as Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and President-elect Donald Trump “are clearly political allies. They have the same approach to the great challenges of the world, and have similar stances on great political issues.”
Referring to Pressman, Szijjártó said that the past years had shown “the difference between a lieutenant sent by George Soros and a real ambassador”.
It will be a unique experience for Hungary to have an American envoy that will not lie continually like all democrat appointees.
