Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban was received in Bern on Tuesday by Federal President Alain Berset and Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis. One topic was relations with the EU, whose Council presidency Hungary will hold in the second half of 2024.
The Swiss side reiterated its aim to stabilize and further develop the bilateral path with the EU, as stated in a communication from the Federal Council.
There was also discussion about cooperation with Hungary as a recipient country from the Swiss EU cohesion contribution. The emphasis is on vocational training, research and innovation.
During the talks with Orbán and his Hungarian delegation, current international issues were also discussed, such as the situation in the Middle East and the war in Ukraine. The initiative for the meeting with the Federal Council came from the Hungarian Prime Minister.
Orban will take part in an event in Zurich on Wednesday, organized by the weekly magazine “Die Weltwoche”. Editor-in-chief and outgoing Zurich SVP National Councilor Roger Köppel regularly praises Orban for his rebellious attitude towards the European Commission.
Orban, who is considered a close confidante of Russian President Vladimir Putin, has been criticized internationally, especially since Russia’s military attack on Ukraine in February last year, ordered by Putin. However, Hungary formally supports the sanctions against Russia. (SDA)
