Mr. Orbán assured the Special Envoy that Hungary will continue to take a firm stance against the increasingly apparent global phenomenon of Christian persecution, while taking into account the principle according to which assistance must be taken to the affected regions instead of bringing the trouble into Europe, Mr. Havasi said with regard to what was said at the meeting.
