| Subject: Strengthening Austro-Hungarian Relations |
Dear Prime Minister,
On behalf of the State of Austria, I extend my formal congratulations to the newly constituted Government of Hungary.
Austria and Hungary are bound by a history that is deeply intertwined. From centuries of coexistence, our nations have shared institutions, infrastructure, culture, and political destiny. It is precisely this legacy that compels renewed dialogue in the present era.
In light of your new government taking office, I would like to propose the initiation of high-level bilateral consultations aimed at strengthening and modernising the relationship between our two countries. In particular, Austria wishes to explore expanded cooperation in the areas of trade, movement of peoples, security and strategic policy alignment.
To that end, I propose a formal meeting between His Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Austria and yourself. Such a meeting would serve as an opportunity to reaffirm historical ties while charting a pragmatic and forward-looking agenda for cooperation in the twenty-first century.
I look forward to a constructive dialogue and a renewed relationship with Hungary.
Sincerely,
Elisabeth Gruber-Steinmann
Ambassador to Hungary
State of Austria
