Janos Martonyi, Hungarian Foreign Minister
Hungary will soon take over the Presidency of the European Union. Sarah Montague asks the country's foreign minister Janos Martonyi how they plan to tackle the challenges ahead.
In less than a month, Hungary takes over the Presidency of the European Union. It'll inherit an ongoing economic crisis in the Eurozone and will have to act as a deal broker to prevent it from tearing Europe apart. And this for a small country on the edge of Europe, that isn't even a member of the Euro and won't accept any further bailouts from the IMF and EU because it doesn't want to comply with their rules. HARDtalk's Sarah Montague asks Hungary's foreign minister Janos Martonyi how Hungary plans to tackle the challenge ahead.
