The 10-15 years ahead will be about the protection of sovereignty, not only in our country, but also in many other regions of the world, emphasized the prime minister.

On Thursday, the Prime Minister received the members of the Hungarian Diaspora Council at the Carmelite Monastery; in his welcome speech and in the informal conversation that followed, threats to Hungary's security and sovereignty were discussed.

According to Viktor Orbán, the next 10-15 years will be about the protection of sovereignty, not only in Hungary, but also in many other regions of the world.

A big debate is expected about the law on the protection of sovereignty that will come before the Parliament, but we need to establish clear prohibitions so that it is not possible to influence the Hungarian elections with foreign money, he said.

He identified it as an additional task, for which he also requested the support of the delegates representing the Hungarian diaspora, to "keep Hungary as one of the safest states in the world even in the midst of the current war and migration challenges".
