The previous government has already
settled diplomatic relations with
00:00:07
Israel so we continued and built it further
and Israeli-Hungarian relations have
00:00:14
only strengthened and strengthened
under our government from that start.
00:00:22
Hungary was one of the countries
which were in favour of repealing the
00:00:28
UN decision condemning Zionism in '91,
and we stated that Zionism can
00:00:34
be accepted as a philosophy
of self-determination and
state-founding principle for the Jewish people
00:00:41
but at the same time we
were and are also in favour
00:00:48
of respecting the Palestinian
people's right to self-determination
00:00:52
- Hungary was one of the countries
where the Palestinian ambassador was present
00:00:59
in addition to the Israeli ambassador.
I do not want
00:01:05
to use the word pressure here but Hungary was
a country which firmly rejected any political
initiatives or ideas to the contrary and is in
a position today where it has to
00:01:12
do nothing, in accordance with the signature,
because both ambassadors are here.
