Hungary calls for uninterrupted humanitarian aid and adherence to international humanitarian law

At the United Nations, President Andrish Balind Baka said that human suffering "cannot wait for diplomacy to succeed" and emphasized immediate humanitarian needs in conflict zones. He said Hungary will continue to provide humanitarian aid "especially [to] the most vulnerable" and urged that aid in the Middle East reach people safely and without interruption in compliance with international humanitarian law.

Baka framed these appeals in humanitarian terms, noting that diplomacy should seek to end the killing while any lasting peace must respect the sovereignty of affected states. He said Israelis and Palestinians must be able to live in security and dignity and that a durable peace must give families reasons to believe their children can grow up without fear.
