Ministry Of Foreign Affairs And Trade Summoned US Chargé d'Affairs
Levente Magyar, Minister of State for Economic Diplomacy summoned André Goodfriend, Chargé d’Affairs of the Embassy of the United States in Budapest at noon. Mr. Magyar informed Mr. Goodfriend that the Hungarian Government welcomes the fact that the United States' diplomatic presence will again be headed by an ambassador, after the Senate confirmed the appointment of Ambassador Colleen Bell.

The Government of Hungary, however, deems it unacceptable and firmly rejects the remarks made by Senator John McCain yesterday regarding the Prime Minister of Hungary, as well as the relationship between Hungary and Russia.

The Government of Hungary once again wishes to ask key U.S. officials to seek credible information before making comments regarding Hungary, so that their remarks do not lack the facts.
