FM Szijjártó shares his thoughts on the Georgian election
Hungary’s government is prepared to develop cooperation with Georgia based on mutual respect and support the European integration process, Szijjártó said in a post on Facebook.
“Saturday’s election in Georgia was not won by those appointed by Brussels and the liberal mainstream, but rather the pro-sovereignty, pro-peace and pro-family ruling party which openly puts national interests first,” the minister said.
“And because the liberals failed miserably, the attacks have already started, with claims that the election wasn’t fair and that there’s no democracy in Georgia,” he said. “What’s most pathetic is that one of the biggest critics is the Lithuanian foreign minister whose party was benched by the Lithuanian voters in yesterday’s election,” he added.
