Szijjarto: Hungary interested in closest possible ties with UK

Hungary's interest lies in ensuring that its relations with the United Kingdom remain as strong as possible after Brexit, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said after talks with his British counterpart Dominic Raab on Tuesday. Hungary is an ally to the UK on a number of issues, Szijjarto said in a video on Facebook. Britain is Hungary's sixth most important investor with 900 British companies employing more than 55,000 Hungarians, the minister said. The UK is also Hungary's 12th most important trading partner, he added.
