diplomatic disagreements: Hungary says at short notice meeting with German Foreign Minister from

Berlin - The journey of Federal Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock to Budapest planned for Monday was canceled at short notice from the Hungarian side. Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto will not meet Baerbock, as the Federal Foreign Office confirmed in the evening. Despite the regret on the part of the German side, the trip will be resumed at a later date.

Reason for the cancellation had not been officially announced. However, the German side expressed understanding of the decision of Hungary in view of the recent unintentional and unauthorized Moscow trip by Prime Minister Orbán. A serious and honest personal conversation between the outside ministers of both countries could have been significant in view of these events, according to the Federal Foreign Office.

This short -term cancellation raises questions about diplomacy between Germany and Hungary. The decision to postpone the meeting signals at least a temporary discrepancy in the relationships between the two countries.
