Hungary is for this reason committed to strengthening Europe and the European communities, protecting the continent’s interests and preserving its peace, he said.
Speaking to Hungarian journalists, Sulyok said the meeting had addressed issues affecting Europe and the global geopolitical situation including the Russia-Ukraine war, energy security, the EU’s competitiveness, economic problems and EU enlargement.
The participants were in agreement that further delaying progress in the integration of the Western Balkans countries would compromise the EU’s credibility in those countries.
Sulyok said that the topic of next month’s US elections also came up and the meeting’s position was that it would not basically influence the situation regarding Europe’s defence capabilities.
“We all were in agreement that the US and NATO are important stakeholders in providing for Europe’s security, yet, Europe’s defence capabilities must be strengthened.”
