Hungarian presence in the country would allow gaining first-hand, credible information about local developments and an opportunity to represent Hungary’s political stance, as well as the interests of Hungarian citizens whenever necessary, Péter Szijjártó said, according to MTI.
Szijjártó said Hungary had a vested interest in the stability and peace of the Middle East and paid special attention to Christian communities living in the region to which it continued to provide humanitarian aid. “We continue to raise our voice firmly for respecting the rights of Christian communities….,” he said.
In line with the country’s policies, Hungary’s ambassador to Syria was the first, “and so far the only” Western diplomat to meet the leaders of the two largest Christian denominations, to be briefed on how their communities had fared during the events of the past weeks, Szijjarto said.
The church leaders had thanked Hungary for its support of Syrian Christians, “and for the solidarity, a dwindling commodity among European countries in these uncertain times,” Szijjártó said.
