Türkiye’s Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, visiting Hungary at the invitation of his Hungarian counterpart Peter Szijjarto, started his diplomatic trip by paying respects at the Galician Front Turkish Cemetery in Budapest. He expressed his profound respect for the Turkish soldiers who fought in one of World War I’s most challenging fronts and remembered the nation’s heroes, including the founder of the Turkish Republic, Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, on the Republic’s 100th anniversary. During his visit, Fidan is expected to engage in discussions on bilateral relations, Türkiye-EU relations, and current global and regional developments.

The strike, called by the Ver.di union after failed wage negotiations, halted waste collection, waste-to-energy plants, and biogas facilities from March 10-14. Overflowing bins and trash piles have raised health concerns, with warnings about rat infestations and disease risks.
With the strike over, 1,300 workers resumed collection, but negotiations remain unresolved. The union demands an 8% wage increase or at least €350 more per month, while employers reject the terms. No further strikes are planned for the next 14 days.
