Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade
The Government of Hungary and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade remains committed to the international stabilization efforts of the Western Balkans region. Hungary, as a direct neighbour of the Western Balkans has a strong interest in seeing security and stability prevail in the region. The Hungarian Government is convinced, that a credible EU integration perspective is particularly important at a time when the security situation has become more fragile and we therefore advocate for the acceleration of the EU integration of the Western Balkans.
Besides the political support, the Ministry provides technical assistance with the secondment of EU-integration experts to each country to support the accession process with their expertise. Hungary is also one of the biggest contributors to the military missions in the region. Strengthening the economic, commercial, cultural and political cooperation between our country and the Western Balkans remains a priority for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
