FM Szijjártó shared good news with Hungarians stuck in the Middle East
The government’s repatriation flights have already brought 989 people, including 892 Hungarians, to Hungary from the Middle East, and more flights will be sent this week, if necessary, Péter Szijjártó, the foreign minister, said.
Fighting in the Middle East is still intense as Iran continues to launch missile strikes against Arab countries, so the use of airspace remains limited, Szijjártó said, according to a ministry statement. Flydubai and Emirates now operate one flight a day from Dubai to Budapest, so the possibility of taking scheduled flights home is also open to Hungarians stranded there, Szijjártó said according to the Hungarian News Agency.
“The last two of the repatriation flights landed early this morning from Muscat, with 180 passengers on board. There will be another repatriation flight today, directly from Dubai,” he added.
“We have chartered an aircraft from Flydubai, which will bring 166 passengers to Hungary, and later this week we will again offer Hungarians stranded in Dubai that if they will take the organised bus trip to Muscat, the capital of Oman, we can bring them home from there on a repatriation flight,” Szijjártó said. “We will definitely have such a flight, and if necessary later this week, we will send more repatriation flights.”

Szijjarto have you called up Trump’s “Board Of Peace” that you signed up for? Well, what is the Board of Peace that Trump chairs doing about this war? Have you called your Iranian friends who are the sponsors of state terrorism that you pledged your “mutual respect” to? Is there anything in your pointy head that makes sense in your foreign relations?
