The past year has proven that Europe is incapable of giving good responses to the challenges, Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó said in Budapest on Wednesday.
Europe can't give the right responses to its challenges, since its policies have been “the policies of ritual suicide”, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said in his annual hearing before parliament’s foreign affairs committee.
Europe’s policies over the course of the year have been “eye-catching but harmful”, endangering the security and future of the continent, he said. Szijjártó said Europe currently faces five challenges: instability in the east, an unprecedented level of instability in its southern neighbourhood which launched “an enormous migration
wave”, the constant threat of terrorism, lack of progress in guaranteeing its energy security and continuing economic challenges.
