Polish official: despite disagreements, Polish-Hungarian cooperation is important

Though Poland and Hungary have their disagreements, cooperation between the two countries is crucial to countering efforts aimed at restricting the sovereignty of European Union member states, the head of the Polish prime minister’s office said on Tuesday.

Poland and Hungary disagree on their policies towards Ukraine and Russia, but are building an alliance of countries that strive to protect their sovereignty within the EU more effectively, Marek Kuchcinski said, appointing the new members of the programme council of the Waclaw Felczak Institute of Polish-Hungarian Cooperation.

Besides the prime ministerial and government level, the two countries must also develop their cooperation in culture, science and on the level of social institutions, Kuchcinski added. He also underscored the importance of fighting disinformation concerning Polish-Hungarian ties.
