The Hungarian government was represented at the event by Peter Fekete, Secretary of State for Culture at the Ministry of Human Resources. Speaking to MTI, he said that the cultural relations between the two countries date back much further than the beginning of diplomatic relations a hundred years ago.
“In the field of art and culture, we are here in Great Britain, and we are very confident that Great Britain will have a stronger presence in Hungary economically.” – said the foreign minister. Peter Black said:
With Brexit, Hungary has lost a great partner.
“However, I think we can preserve the focal points in the field of cultural life, and I also think that Hungarians living in Great Britain will also find these cultural focal points.” Foreign Minister said.
On the anniversary, Ferenc Komen, Hungary’s ambassador in London, told MTI: With the end of British membership in the European Union (Brexit), there were necessarily barriers to trade with which Hungarian companies interested in trade between the two countries were able to adapt very quickly. For the new conditions, preparations began in time, so the new rules did not cause any great shock.
