Hungary’s head of state arrived in Riga at the invitation of Latvia’s President Egils Levits on 20 June 2022 to attend the Three Seas Initiative Forum. 

Launched in 2015, the Three Seas Initiative aims to ensure that Europe's existing east-west transport and energy infrastructure is complemented by north-south routes as soon as possible.

„The first world record was set on land before the race even began."– said President Katalin Novák in her speech officially opening the 19th FINA Aquatics Championships in Budapest’s aquatics complex “Danube Arena”. 
The President also emphasized that as the organisers had only four months to prepare for the world championships, their achievement is also a world record.

At the invitation of the President of Romania Klaus Iohannis and the President of Poland Andrzej Duda, President Katalin Novák attended the B9, i.e. Bucharest Nine, Summit, at which the participating countries condemned the Russian aggression against Ukraine in a joint declaration. 

The consultations among the B9 – i.e. the four Visegrad countries, the three Baltic states and Romania and Bulgaria – were initiated by Poland and Romania in 2015 to give the NATO member states in the Central-European region an integrated representation in the Alliance.

President Katalin Novák awarded the Grand Cross of the Hungarian Order of Merit to Suzuki Osamu, former President of Suzuki Motor. The investment in Esztergom thirty years ago was realised thanks to the efforts of Mr. Suzuki, and the plant is still the only European bridgehead for the Japanese company.
 

Katalin Novák arrived in the capital of the Czech Republic at the invitation of the Czech President Miloš Zeman on 7 June 2022.

At the bilateral, friendly meeting, the heads of state discussed the most pressing challenges of the current period of conflict. They agreed that the most important thing is to speak frankly and clearly, and to maintain a firm moral stance.

They strongly condemned Russian aggression against Ukraine. They stressed that care must be taken to ensure that sanctions against Russia do not hurt those more who are on the side of peace.

"What does being Hungarian mean to you? It's like asking a fish what water means to it." This is how Professor Mihály Csíkszentmihályi answered this question.

Dear Celebrating Audience! Dear young people from Transylvania, the Highlands, the Southland, Transcarpathia and Hungary!

Many of us would answer, perhaps many of you would answer this question in the same way. What does being Hungarian mean to you? It is like asking a fish what water means to it. Because how do you put into words what it means to be Hungarian for us? How can we express the obvious in words?

Dear Celebrating Audience!

Dear Celebrating Audience!

We are here because Gábor Bethlen is not forgotten and we do not wish to forget him in the future, either. He created lasting value in Transylvania at a time when others destroyed, made war and took what belonged to others.

In the 1980s, long before the Regime Change, a tradition evolved. Hungarian tourists in Transylvania who made it as far as the Hargita Mountains had a pine branch tucked into the grill of their car, above the licence plate. This is how they let others know where they had been. They thought it important to signal to their compatriots in Transylvania and Hungary that they had visited Transylvania. It was important for them to make this trip and communicate this to others.
