HC Deb 12 July 1989 vol 156 c548W
42. Mr. Brandon-Bravo

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs when he last met representatives of the Hungarian Government; and what matters were discussed.

83. Mr. Mans

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make a statement on Anglo-Hungarian relations.

Mr. Waldegrave

My right hon. and learned Friend met Hungarian State Minister, Imre Pozsgay, on 25 April. I have just returned from a three-day visit to Hungary where I met Prime Minister Nemeth, Mr. Pozsgay and a wide range of Government party and Opposition leaders. I also laid a wreath at the grave of Imre Nagy and placed flowers at the memorial to Raoul Wallenberg. I expressed the strong support of the Government—and, I believe, of the House—for the process of reform taking place in Hungary.
