China and Hungary pledged to continue to enhance bilateral cooperation in various fields to build a stronger comprehensive strategic partnership.
Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjarto made the remarks in a phone conversation.
Wang conveyed congratulations of the Chinese leaders over the Fidesz party’s re-winning parliamentary elections under the leadership of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
The election result shows that the independent policy pursued by the Hungarian side is in line with the country’s national conditions and the common interests of its people, and is firmly and broadly supported by the people, Wang said. He wished that the Hungarian side will achieve greater progress under the leadership of Prime Minister Orban.
Wang said as the world finds itself in a new period of turbulence and changes, it is particularly valuable and important not only for Hungary, but also for other countries in Europe and the rest of the world to stay independent.
Underlining the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Hungary, Wang said that both sides should deepen cooperation, consolidate the political foundation, enhance their capacity to jointly resist risks and challenges, and safeguard each other’s sovereignty, security and development interests.
