“The hegemony of the West has come to an end; no one doubts this today, as it is well supported by data,” Orbán stated, pointing to the emergence of a new geopolitical era. According to the Prime Minister, this transition necessitates continuous assessment and analysis, given the growing economic segmentation into geopolitical blocs. Orbán highlighted the immense pressure placed on sovereigntist states, including Hungary, which seek to navigate these changes while preserving their autonomy.

Asserting Hungary’s stance, Orbán declared, “There is very little room for maneuver in being part of a bloc, which is why it is in Hungary’s interest to be a member of the European Union and NATO, but not part of a bloc.” This vision underpins Hungary’s strategy to bolster alliances with other sovereign nations, reinforcing its commitment to a distinct path within the international community.

Orbán’s address also clarified the pivotal role of Hungarian ambassadors in this new era. Tasked with demonstrating Hungary’s success through “indisputable economic facts,” ambassadors are urged to focus on economic diplomacy rather than political differences. This directive underscores the importance of showcasing Hungary’s achievements on the global stage to foster international cooperation and understanding.

Echoing Orbán’s sentiments, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó, who also participated in the meeting, took to Facebook to underscore the heightened role and challenges facing Hungary’s ambassadors. “In an era of threats, our ambassadors will have an even greater role and task, and they will need more courage than ever to represent the national interest effectively,” Szijjártó wrote, highlighting the critical importance of diplomacy in safeguarding Hungary’s national interests amid global uncertainties.
