FM Szijjártó: Trump beacon of hope
Change language:
What remains most important amid fresh developments in the US presidential race is that Donald Trump is a beacon of hope for peace in the world, Péter Szijjártó, the foreign minister, said on Tuesday.
Trump a beacon of hope?
Szijjártó said that if the former president was re-elected, then there would be “a huge chance of bringing peace to the world, including Europe … and central Europe, too”.
According to a ministry statement, he said the war on the Russian-Ukrainian front was “more and more brutal”, and only an external actor may bring the warring parties to the negotiating table, making it clear to them that “no solution lies on the battlefield”.
“Only Donald Trump has such a chance,” he said, adding that the Republican presidential candidate would hopefully seize it at the earliest possible opportunity.
Meanwhile, Szijjártó said the fact that the EU’s foreign policy chief had changed the venue of the bloc’s informal foreign affairs council to Brussels from Budapest was “not of great importance”. “It didn’t matter to me then, and it doesn’t matter now,” he said.
He insisted that those in favour of holding the meeting in Budapest outweighed those against.
Szijjártó said that the recent meeting of the EU Foreign Affairs Council had been characterised by “unbelievable hysteria”, and he referred to “pro-war politicians venting their frustration” at Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s “peace mission”.
He noted that Slovakia “despite the pressure, stood by Hungary openly”. The minister said there had been “clear cooperation between two patriotic governments” who worked together “in a fraternal way” despite not being politically aligned “according to the old divides”, he added.
Szijjártó: IFRC expands Budapest office
The expanded Budapest office of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) was inaugurated on Tuesday, the minister of foreign affairs and trade said, adding that this was set to further bolster the organisation’s activities.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, Szijjártó noted that the IFRC had chosen Budapest as the location for its global service centre eight years ago and this was the second expansion of the office since then.
Victor looks adoringly at a convicted rapist and fraud felon while President Peter shakes his hand. Some government here!
i arrived in prague 11 years ago – knew little about the EU. Much of what I learned was French and German English media.
Szijjarto stood out as one of the most intelligent in Europe when thing seem crazy.
He has never failed to impress. This was before I ever thought of moving to Budapest.
As for the comment above. Trump was never convicted of rape even though the new Stalin justice is in place and have tried to send him to prison for 100 years that has also failed. Their assignation attemp has also failed.
Dear TM, Trump was found guilty by a jury of this peers of damages from his sexual assault. And I suppose the “grab them by the pussy” was just “locker room talk” and the sex with a porn star while his wife was recovering from giving birth was just “boys being boys” I also noticed that you glossed over the 34 felony fraud counts, also by a jury of his peers, not a Stalin court as you state. I guess, with your gushing at Peter, you are either Peter, or a very close friend. The joke is on you and your comment hahahahahahaha
President Peter towers above Victor, you saphead, President Trump is not and never was a convicted rapist. Where did you get your information? Your statement is a lie.
Now, your idol, is a wife abuser, woman beater, you have a very low bar for a leader.
Because of the weakness of the Biden Government, Russian and Chinese Airplanes flew into Alaskan air space. Did Russian planes not fly into Polish air space previously? It seems the two countries are relying on Biden’s weakness and doling out punishment for the US interference in Ukraine and US interference in Taiwan. Hope to God that the conflicts will not expand either in EU or North America.
