FM Szijjártó holds discussion with Israeli minister
Péter Szijjártó, the minister of foreign affairs and trade, talked with Ron Dermer, Israel’s minister of strategic affairs, over the phone on Monday.
Szijjártó and Dermer discussed the situation in the Middle East, and Szijjártó reiterated Hungary’s stance that Israel had the right to self-defence, the Hungarian minister said on Facebook.
Szijjártó said the international community had a vested interest in avoiding terror attacks like the one Israel had suffered.
Dermer confirmed media reports that the body of a hostage, a Hungarian-Israeli dual citizen, had been found, Szijjártó said.
The ministers again reinforced their commitment to freeing the other Hungarian-Israeli hostage still held by Hamas, he said.
