Hungary honors US Ambassador George Herbert Walker

In recognition of his outstanding work in developing bilateral Hungarian-American relations, President László Sólyom presented departing US Ambassador George Herbert Walker the Middle Cross of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Hungary.

" Ties between our countries have grown stronger during the past three years. Our relationship as allies has reached new levels; our strategic partnership is blossoming in several areas beyond the realm of cooperation in security policy" said the President of Hungary in his laudation.

We might add: Ambassador Walker played a key role in this!

Congratulations !
