Video: Hungarian Military Chief & Ambassador To Iraq Visit Kurdistan
Kurdistan 24 reports that a delegation led by Chief of Staff of Hungary’s defense Ferenc Korom on Wednesday met with Kurdish Peshmerga officials in Erbil to discuss his country’s military support to the semi-autonomous Kurdistan Region.

Accompanied by Hungary’s Ambassador to Iraq Attila Tar and Consul-General in Erbil Miklos Szabo, the delegation visited their military advisers at Peshmerga training camps on Tuesday.

“We try not to be biased to any of the two sides,” Tar said. “This is why we have separate independent missions in Baghdad and Erbil.”

Kurdistan 24 asked Korom at a press conference about IS’ ongoing activities in the disputed territories.

“I cannot say there is a main solution to the problem… What I can say is that we shall continue our cooperation and that is the reason that our parliament made a decision that we will continue to deploy our Hungarian soldiers into” the Kurdistan Region, he responded. “We will continue to train the Peshmerga forces.”
