The government of Azerbaijan on Thursday sent 10,000 face masks to the Hungarian embassy in Baku, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said in a Facebook post.
The donation marks another show of solidarity in Hungary’s battle against the novel coronavirus outbreak from a member state of the Turkic Council, Szijjártó said.
Preparations are under way to transport the masks to Hungary so that they can be handed out to health-care workers as soon as possible, he added.
