Külügyminiszter Kabinetjének iratai (1918-1944)

The Cabinet of the Hungarian Foreign Ministry was responsible for presenting matters of foreign policy to the Council of Ministers as well as addressing internal matters that concerned the Foreign Minister as a member of the government. The Cabinet also prepared laws proposed in Parliament that belonged to the realm of foreign policy, parliamentary inquiries and ministerial decisions. The Cabinet also arranged meetings of foreigners with the Regent who did not have diplomatic status in Budapest. Last but not least, the Cabinet served as the secretariat of the Ministry.

The collection consists of three main parts: the documents that were originally collected by annum but where later rearranged thematically, confidential papers that were preserved by annum (their small number made any thematic reorganization seem unnecessary), and papers that were collected thematically already by the Cabinet.
