Hungary is ready to collaborate with the new Romanian government, minister says

Péter Szijjártó, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, stated that Hungary is ready to collaborate with the new Romanian government, given their shared economic and energy security interests, which rely on “stable, respectful and mutually beneficial cooperation” in today’s perilous world.

Noting the formation of the government to include the Hungarian Democratic Alliance in Romania (RMDSZ), Minister Szijjártó said he spoke with RMDSZ leader Hunor Kelemen by phone and “congratulated my friend”.

The interests of Hungarians in Transylvania “are best served” with RMDSZ representatives in government, he added.
