The year 2021 was the all-time best in terms of Hungarian-Russian cooperation, Hungary’s minister of foreign affairs and trade said on Facebook on Thursday.

“This is a solid ground for us to make further important advances next year,” Péter Szijjártó said in a message posted in Moscow.

Szijjártó announced that Prime Minister Viktor Orbán will meet President Vladimir Putin in early February, adding that preparations are under way for their talks.
