Orban says Hungary to continue following "Hungarian path"

On relations with China, Orban reaffirmed Hungary's adherence to the one-China principle, noting that China is regarded as an opportunity rather than a threat.

BUDAPEST, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- Hungary will continue to pursue the "Hungarian path" in both domestic and foreign policies amid profound changes in the global political landscape, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Monday.

Speaking at his annual international press conference in Budapest, Orban said Hungary has been following the "Hungarian path" since 2010 and will continue to do so in the years ahead, particularly in addressing challenges related to energy and migration.

Orban stated that national sovereignty is increasingly dependent on energy supply, which is crucial for technological development, and that Hungary safeguards its energy security and independence.

He criticized the European Union (EU)'s energy regulations as "destructive" and said the country is defending itself legally and politically.

On migration, Orban said Hungary will not accept migrants, establish refugee camps, or become an immigration country, adding that Budapest rejects the EU's migration policies.

On relations with China, Orban reaffirmed Hungary's adherence to the one-China principle, noting that China is regarded as an opportunity rather than a threat.
