Hungarian government international spokesperson received prestigious US award
Zoltán Kovács, the state secretary for international communications and relations at the Prime Minister’s Office, has received a Safari Club International award.
Kovács said he accepted the International Legislator of the Year award for his work in recent years and during Hungary’s EU presidency.
He said in a post on his Facebook page on Saturday that the award from one of the weightiest international hunting and nature conservation organisations was presented before an audience of 3,700 at the US-based body’s annual conference in Nashville.
Kovács paid tribute to Hungarian professionals, foresters, hunters and nature conservationists who had ensured that “Hungary remains a stronghold of common-sense nature conservation and the preservation of traditional hunting values in Europe.”
In his speech, Kovács emphasised the importance of cooperation between various American, international and Hungarian organisations, and he highlighted tasks facing people involved in environmental protection and sustainable wildlife management in light of the “common sense” agenda of President Donald Trump.
