Ader: Hungary backs Georgia's Euro-Atlantic aspirations

Hungary will continue to support Georgia's territorial integrity within its internationally recognised borders as well as the country's aspirations for Euro-Atlantic integration, President Janos Ader said after talks with his Georgian counterpart in Tbilisi on Thursday. At a press conference held jointly with Salome Zourabichvili, Ader, who is the first Hungarian president to visit Georgia since 1990, expressed hope that the new European Commission would give momentum to Georgia's Euro-Atlantic integration. Concerning bilateral ties, Ader said the two country's tourism relations were given a significant boost by the launch of a direct flight between Budapest and Tbilisi five years ago, adding that more similar steps should be taken in the future.
