Hungary and Finland have reached an agreement on co-operation in space research and industry, as a result of which Hungarian companies and universities will forge closer co-operation with their Finnish partners, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said in Helsinki on Tuesday.

Szijjártó signed a memorandum of understanding with Finnish Economy and Labour Minister Ilona Lundström on bilateral co-operation in space research and activity.

Szijjártó also conferred with Jani Hamalainen, acting head of the Teknium Oy company, during his visit.

Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó told a forum of Visegrád, Nordic and Baltic countries in Hameenlinna that Europe is under migration attack from several directions and this attack is expected to increase in the coming months because of the irresponsible EU immigration policy and some irresponsible statements.

He said the EU is under growing migration pressure from the east, as well as the usual southern and south-eastern directions, adding that Lithuania and Poland feel threatened from the direction of Belarus, which has a direct impact on the entire North European region.
