The Hungarian parliament voted unanimously in favour of the ratification of the NATO accession protocols of Albania and Croatia in Budapest on Monday.

"It is of primary interest that the Balkan countries integrate into NATO and the European Union," Foreign Minister Kinga Goncz said after Hungary became the first NATO member to ratify the accession documents.

Goncz underlined Hungary's role in the preparation of the two countries for NATO membership.

In July, the 26 countries of the North Atlantic Council signed the accession protocols of Albania and Croatia.

Following the ratification by the 26 parliaments, the two Balkan countries will join the alliance at its next summit in April next year.
