Hungary has not changed its position regarding the Russian-Georgian conflict and wanted both sides to adhere to the cease-fire and the Russian forces to leave Georgia, government spokesperson Bernadett Budai said here on Thursday.
According to the Hungarian News Agency MTI, Budai was speaking after a cabinet meeting on Thursday.
Budai said dialogue between the NATO countries and Russia must be maintained.
"We need to pay great attention to things like the international community helping Georgia back onto its feet, with a particular focus on helping humanitarian organizations and on helping to retain security in the region," she said.
Regarding the verbal altercation between the Hungarian opposition Fidesz leader Viktor Orban and the Russia's ambassador to Budapest Igor Savolsky, Budai said the government had nothing to do with it and she did not want to comment it.
Orban recently charged that Russia was saying essentially the same thing as it had said when crushing the Hungarian revolution in 1956. Savolsky rejected Orban's statement.
