In his letter, Mr. Orbán expressed his pleasure at being able to continue to work together with Mr. Seehofer. Over the past years their cooperation has extended beyond the preservation of longstanding Bavarian-Hungarian relations, he wrote, and it has addressed the challenges facing Europe on the basis of Christian-conservative values. In closing Mr. Orbán wrote: “I wish you good health in your position of responsibility and further success in the Berlin coalition talks”.
