He pointed to the fight against illegal migration and the protection of borders and sovereignty as examples.
We want to base our policies on common sense, family is a priority for both administrations, and we both speak the language of peace,
he said.
The most important takeaway of today's talks with Mike Waltz was that we speak the language of peace and that the risk of escalation is as clear for the US as it is for us, in the neighborhood of the war," Peter Szijjarto said.
"The Democrats here are pro- war, the Republicans are pro-peace, so it was a conversation between the two of us today specifically aimed at peace as an important goal," he said.
There is nothing left but to hope that nothing happens in Ukraine until January 20 to irrevocably change the situation and make brokering peace, creating peace much harder than it now seems,
he added.
At the meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Brussels earlier this week, the incumbent US state secretary had a "very different approach", Peter Szijjarto pointed out. He then noted that eight NATO member states have still failed to meet the 2014 commitment to boost their defense spending to two percent of GDP. He added that another NATO requirement is to commit 20 percent of defense spending to upgrading and new purchases, noting that in Hungary this ratio is at 48 percent, the second highest in the military organization
That is one way we contribute to NATO's strength
he said.
