So I wonder, what do you think about that? Is it just, uh, a way to express the new politics of the new party in power, or perhaps it's a, a bigger shift in Hungarian foreign policy, just naming Russia as a threat?

Attila DemkóGUEST
So we have to see the new national security strategy and the new military strategy, national military strategy.

Attila DemkóGUEST
Of course, it's not possible, so the government is since May, and it- it's a longer process to write these documents.

Attila DemkóGUEST
So the, these documents are, are from, as far as I remember, from the pre full scale Russian invasion, uh, time, from the previous government.

Attila DemkóGUEST
Even previous government said it's an aggression unacceptable and against, uh, against international law.

Attila DemkóGUEST
Um, so I think there are the, in the new government is more, um, putting more emphasis on the, on, on the, on the fact of Russian aggression.
