US agrees with Hungary’s protection of Judeo-Christian values, says Hungarian state secretary
Change language:
The United States government agrees with Hungary’s stance on the importance of protecting Europe’s Judeo-Christian heritage, foreign ministry state secretary Levente Magyar said in Washington on Tuesday.
Magyar is on a two-day visit to the US capital at the invitation of the pro-Israel lobby group AIPAC.
Speaking to MTI after addressing the annual AIPAC conference, Magyar said
the US understood the value-based debates European politicians are having on the protection of the continent’s Judeo-Christian heritage. “This is also the focal point of debates in the United States,” he said.
At the conference, Magyar spoke about whether the European Union’s migration policy contributes to the rise of anti-Semitism.
“Over here they agree that unchecked immigration leads to a rise in anti-Semitism,” he said.
