MTVA chief highlights Turkey, Hungary public media cooperation
Change language:
Dániel Papp, the chief executive of Hungary’s public media provider MTVA, underlined the importance of cooperation between the Hungarian and Turkish public media services in connection with a bilateral agreement signed in Ankara.
MTVA signed an agreement with Turkish state media service TRT and Turkish state news agency Anadolu during a high-level Hungarian delegation’s visit to Ankara last week.
Under the agreement, the partners will expand cooperation involving joint television productions and between two country’s national news agencies, Papp told public news broadcaster M1 on Monday.
Papp said that Hungarian and Turkish public media forged strong ties earlier, too, noting a 2+2-year cooperation agreement signed in 2013 that saw the production of thematic programmes on Hungarian and Turkish television.
The Turkish news agency has subscribers in 100 countries and offices in 41, and it publishes news in 13 languages, he said.
It is very risky to get too close to Turkish dictator Erdogan.
Hungary does not need friends like that.
