PM meets Chen Wenqing in Budapest
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán met Chen Wenqing, Secretary of the Central Political and Legal Affairs Commission of the Chinese Communist Party, in Budapest on Friday morning.
The prime minister said the stability of Hungarian-Chinese relations is greatly valued in the current challenging global economic environment. 'Hungary's position is that Europe's competitiveness is served by cooperation with China and strengthening connectivity, rather than an artificial separation of East and West,' PM Orbán said.
In 2024, China was the most important foreign investor in Hungary in terms of investment volume, Orban said. 'Chinese companies such as CATL, Semcorp, EVE Power or Sunwoda operate in our country and they significantly contribute to the performance of the Hungarian economy,' the prime minister added.
