State-owned Hungarian cargo plane starts shipping service with China
The cargo plane Hungary’s government purchased after the first wave of the coronavirus pandemic started commercial operation on Saturday, Péter Szijjártó, the minister of foreign affairs and trade, said.
Operated by Hungarian carrier Wizz Air, the Airbus A330-200F will shuttle between China and Hungary three times a week, Szijjártó said.
The government bought the plane at a time when delivering medical supplies was extremely difficult, he said. The plane was used to transport masks, protective gear and ventilators, as well as 6.8 million doses of vaccine this year alone, he said.

Szijjártó highlighted, that the “Hungarian government has never had any state-owned, wide-bodied cargo plane with Hungarian insignia and such large carrying capacity participating in scheduled traffic, but now it has one”.
The demand for this is clearly shown by the fact that according to the new contract, the plane will deliver approximately ten tonnes of cargo to China and will ship roughly fifty tonnes of cargo, mainly consisting of electronics and car parts, back to Hungary.
Szijjártó also added that this versatile shipping opportunity creates a competitive advantage for Hungarian companies.

HOPE – on its return flight from China, this transport carrier, is used by the Hungarian Government, paid for out of TAX payers Money – it does not have in its Cargo hold – FULL – of increasing merchandise, that – OVERALL – at the end of its use – needs – DISPOSING.
This transport aircraft – has not been PURCHASED hopefully – to “FEED” the following :
(1) – Chinese 2 dollar shop(s) – spread around the Districts of Budapest & wider Hungary.
(2) – Kobanya Chinese/Chinatown – Ganz Market .
(3) – Asia Cener .
Candour being honest with yourself – if you use visit or “other” the (3) three types of Chinese/Asian facilities – be HONEST, what clear % – of what you see – is PLASTIC or “other” – Non -DISPOSABLE short term goods & items ???
Remember – the high % of items – mainly of non-recyclable items – that are SOLD in these (3) three mentioned facilities – imported from China – require getting rid of – or end up in places – “dumped” – that sees them, floating down the Duna.
Disposing of Rubbish/Garbage – the cost is PAID by the Citizens of Districts.
When in this COST – there is the – OBVIOUS – increase appearing of items DEEMED – non-recyclable – that is generating in high % out of the (3) three Chinese/Asian Facilities – how is this by the Hungarian Government & District Councils to be best handled ?
Who wears the COST ?
We know the simple answer to that question – the tax payers.
The cargo “hold” of this Citizans tax paid aircraft – may it EXCLUDE – imports to Hungary – that literally become JUNK.
Remember – the increase of Rail Containers arriving in Budapest, Hungary – through the developement on-going of Rail Freight Lines – from Budapest to China – is on the Big Increase.
Budapest, Hungary – the New – 21st century Silk Road – the meeting of the East and the West.
China – we are “dangerously” as a country Hungary – to DEEP in our Relationship(s) with them – Financial, Economic & Trading Relationship(s)- that will – if Hungary – its CITIZENS – don’t take action(s) – under use of there Democratic Rights as Citizens – that see’s FUTURE – problems for Hungary – in this Chinese/Hungarian – Love Match ///.
History – Never Lies.
China – a History that “thrives” on – has a historical reputation and attitude – likened to that of a – Jackal – that “preys” on the “weak & “vulnerable” wears them down, and then – comes in and takes ALL.
Hungary – look at the wider Global picture – the GROWING qustions – being asked – what is China’s Agenda?
Hungary – strategically located in an excellent place/postion – for the expanding and the widening of a Central European Distribution location for – China – its agenda – that has validity in seeing & thinking – China want increased and greater ownership of existance in Europe.
Hungary – apply the brakes – NOW – that if you continue on and travelling down this NEW 21st century Silk Road – will end in Disaster – and our ABILITY – to retain – Sovereignity – OBLIVIATED.
Qustion – Without Notice – the funds used by the present Government to purchase this Massive Cargo Aircraft – interesting to see the audit trail of the funds, paid to the previous aircraft owner.
Could be – another – Chinese/Hungarian – “joint” venture, that the Chinese – through fundings and guarantees to Hungary – have the Major say – in the operation, functioning and purpose of this Cargo Aircraft.
Open the books – good question for the Opposition Party – whoever they are in Hungary – to Get Answers – the Truth of the background in the purchasing of this massive cargo aircraft – that services China & Hungary.
It won’t be long before the official language in Hungary is Mandarin.
Any truth in the public arena discussion, that late 2022 on, primary school aged children, be compulsory to either learn Mandarin or Russian, that will be included in there subject curriculum ?
