A statement issued by the Hungarian Foreign Ministry stresses that the Syrian authorities should respect human rights, freedom of expression, the right of peaceful assembly, and abide by the implementation of the promised reform process.
The statement adds that the Syrian government should immediately begin a national dialog on the Syrian people's legitimate demands instead of arresting protesters opposing the violence.
Hungary also welcomes the statement by the chairman of the United Nations Security Council. The statement gives further testimony that the international community rejects the brutal actions of the Syrian government.
