In the presence of representatives of the diplomatic corps and of Africa-oriented business organisations and NGOs who attended the event, János Martonyi gave a speech and emphasized that Hungary intended to deepen and broaden its cooperation with Africa under the aegis of global opening policy.
The Hungarian Foreign Minister declared that the Africa Forum to be held in Budapest between May 23 and June 7 clearly demonstrates that Africa is a major target of Hungarian foreign policy. The programs and events of the Africa Forum show Hungary’s commitment to the better future of the African people and provide an opportunity for African and Hungarian decision-makers to exchange their views and to explore further opportunities for cooperation.
