"First of all, I want to make clear that everyone has to understand that Hungary is a sovereign country. And it's not only that everybody has to understand but everybody has to respect it. Regardless of whether it is a superpower of the East or superpower of the West or any other countries, they have to respect that Hungary is a country and the Hungarian parliament is a sovereign entity. And we will never be ready to act according to instructions coming from anywhere in the world. Never ever," Szijjarto said.
"We never criticize decisions of the United States. We never criticize decisions of the Congress. We never interfere with what they put on the agenda or what they don't. And this is the expectation of ours, towards others as well. So we don't care to be honest of such kind of instructions. Because we are not the 51st state, but a very sovereign country," he added.
