Hungarian soldiers will be deployed to the Baltic, along with other V4 security forces within the framework of measures aimed at increasing NATO presence in the region.
A political agreement has been reached that includes pledges of V4 countries on “each sending a contingent of soldiers to the Baltic in three-month shifts beginning in 2017 within the framework of measures aimed at increasing NATOs presence in the region”, announced Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjarto Friday.
150 soldiers at a time from each v4 member state, including Hungary, wil be stationed in the Baltic region.
“This one-year military presence on the part of the V4 countries clearly indicates our solidarity with the countries of the Baltic”, Mr. Szijjarto added.
