Dear Foreign Ministers,
After careful thought, the Hungarian Government has decided to give notice of eviction to all foreign embassies and consulates within Hungary; and withdrawal of all Hungarian embassies and consulates abroad.
This decision has come as the Hungarian government wish to renegotiate the agreements of diplomatic missions within Hungary and abroad, in order to clarify the legal status and diplomatic relations of these embassies and consulates. This would improve the function and protection of these diplomatic missions, guaranteeing greater safety and security of citizens abroad and greater interaction between respective governments and institutions.
This eviction/withdrawal comes with a six month notice, to which foreign government are recommended to contact the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and renegotiate. All new agreements will be made in the confines of international and domestic law. Failure to do so once this time period is over, diplomatic mission would be forcibly removed.
We thank you for your understanding in regards to this matter.
Sincerely,
Janos Martonyi
Minister of Foreign Affairs
Hungary
