Chinese police officers in Hungary, symbol of a bromance between Beijing and Budapest. The Hungarian Interior Minister confirmed that Chinese police officers would patrol Hungary.
A collaboration that goes against the grain of the European Union's mistrust of Beijing. “China has more effective means of monitoring them than police officers, whose mission undoubtedly consists of carrying out patrols mainly in the tourist districts of Budapest,” says Richard Turcsanyi, specialist in relations between China and the EU at the Institute of Central European Asian Studies.
