Hungary's top diplomat warns about new Cold War

The current situation in international relations may bring mankind back to a new Cold War era, Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjarto told TASS on Thursday.
According to him, the global coronavirus pandemic brought many problems and challenges: "We are living in interdependence, that is why we had some hope that based on this recognition, cooperation between East and West might be more respect-based. But unfortunately, what I see is not that. I see that there is a threat of a new Cold War being created," he added.

"You see that trade figures are growing among those who are in political conflicts with each other - like China and the USA," he went on to say. "International cooperation or diplomacy has not made any steps towards this respect-based approach," he regretted. This is a problem, "which I am afraid will bring some challenges in the future for our global community," Peter Szijjarto said.
