Following the ceremony, the two Ambassadors discussed various topics.  H.E.

For his part, H.E. Mr. Kàrolyi explained the Hungarian parliamentary system and the specificities of the Prime Minister's powers.  He also emphasised the interest his country takes in European affairs, which are under the direct authority of the Prime Minister.

H.E. Mr. Kàrolyi expressed the wish to become the first Hungarian Ambassador accredited in the Principality of Monaco.

The Republic of Hungary is the 130th State to establish diplomatic relations with Monaco.
