In Stuttgart on Tuesday Prime Minister Viktor Orbán met former Minister President of Baden-Württemberg Erwin Teufel. In their meeting they discussed the future of European Christian democracy and crisis situations in the European Union.
Mr. Orbán and Mr. Teufel – who served as Baden-Württemberg’s Minister President between 1991 and 2005 – were co-founders of Andrássy University Budapest. At their meeting they agreed that, in order to turn Europe into a continent which cherishes its culture and its Christian roots and which is also competitive, there is a need not for European institutions, but for credible European leaders.
On Monday the Prime Minister held talks with Dieter Zetsche, the Chairman of Daimler AG, at the recently renovated Consulate General in Stuttgart; on Monday evening he gave a presentation on Hungary’s economic successes to around 250 business leaders from the Foundation for Family Businesses at the headquarters of the Stuttgart-based company Dekra.
Later today former Chancellor of Germany Helmut Kohl will receive Mr. Orbán in his home, after which the Prime Minister will visit the Konrad Adenauer memorial house in Bonn, and meet Timotheus Hötges, the CEO of Deutsche Telekom.
