BREAKING
Russian Ministry of Defense: 37 Ukrainian drones destroyed in 4 hours over regions of Russia and the Black Sea.
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.

Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said on Monday that investments amounting to 8 to 10 billion euros ($8.5 billion - $10.7 billion) may be given to Hungary by four Chinese companies according to negotiations that are currently ongoing.

Chinese Central Foreign Affairs Office Director Wang Yi arrived earlier on Monday in Budapest to meet with Szijjarto and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban to discuss Beijing and Budapest's ties, economic cooperation, and several regional issues, such as the Ukraine war.

"I would like to emphasize once again that we welcome China's position to achieve peace [in Ukraine] as soon as possible. I sincerely hope that we could successfully work together to do this, to achieve peace," Szijjarto told a press conference following his talks with Wang.

Hungary was the only country in the EU to refuse to support Brussels' initiative to train the Ukrainian army in Europe, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in October, highlighting that his country would not participate in the EU's training of Kiev's soldiers.

The country is the only European Union member state to take such a stance, with its Foreign Minister explaining Budapest's position by underlining that it supported peace efforts rather than escalation.

Cited by Hungarian news agency MTI, Szijjarto said following the meeting: "Now a series of negotiations are underway with four large Chinese companies, with the completion of which new investments in the amount of 8 to 10 billion euros may arrive in Hungary," 

Agricultural cooperation between both nations is also being developed, with Szijjarto noting that his country had the largest amount of licenses for food imports to China among the Central European region. 

Back in December, Szijjarto said that investment input to Hungary’s economy in 2022 reached a record 6.5 billion euros and highlighted that in 2023, the investment in the country will skyrocket even higher.
