’Guest of honor country at China-CEEC Expo’ Chinese Senior diplomat and FM meet with Hungarian FM

Chinese top diplomat Wang Yi on May 16 met in Beijing with Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjarto, who came to China to attend the upcoming China-Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC) Expo. Wang said he appreciated Hungary’s friendly policy toward China, saying it is in line with the interests of Hungary and its people, the common interests of China and Europe, and the trend of the times. Noting that China supports European strategic autonomy, Wang said China is willing to work with Hungary and other EU countries to uphold genuine multilateralism, advance democratization in international relations, and make the global governance system more just and equitable. Hailing China’s efforts to find a political settlement to the Ukraine crisis, Szijjarto said Hungary-China and EU-China cooperation are opportunities rather than risks. Szijjarto also said Hungary welcomes China to increase investment in the country, adding that Hungary is willing to enhance cooperation with China in various fields and push bilateral relations to a new level. Szijjarto met with Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Qin Gang on the same day. Qin vowed to expand China’s mutually beneficial cooperation and people-to-people exchanges with Hungary, and described Hungary as China’s good friend and partner. Qin said China will continue to plan bilateral relations with Hungary from a strategic stance and a long-term perspective.
