Szijjártó visited Cambodia on November 3, 2020 to hold several meetings with high-ranking government officials, and tested positive for COVID-19 the following day after flying to Bangkok. Four close contacts in Cambodia subsequently tested positive, which prompted government officials from 13 Cambodian government ministries, including Prime Minister Hun Sen, to enter quarantine, and contact tracing efforts were made to seven provinces and tests administered on around 1,000 people. The visit resulted in schools, museums, cinemas, entertainment venues, gyms, beer gardens to be closed across Phnom Penh for two weeks.

During a breakfast meeting of the Israel Council on Foreign Relations in Jerusalem on November 16, 2015, Szijjártó said that Hungary would not place the settlements labeling on products originating from the West Bank.

He considered the aforementioned policy to be "irrational," and even threatening to a potential Israeli-Palestinian dialogue.
