The Hungarian ambassador in Lima is the official representative of the Government in Budapest to the Government of Peru .
Both countries established relations in the 19th century. In 1851, Austria–Hungary recognized the independence of Peru, and both countries subsequently established relations.[ 1] As a result of World War I , Peru severed relations with both Germany and Austria–Hungary in 1917, reestablishing them in 1920.[ 2]
After the 1968 Peruvian coup d'état and the establishment of Juan Velasco Alvarado 's Revolutionary Government , relations were renewed in April 1969[ 3] with the Hungarian People's Republic as the new Peruvian government pursued closer relations with the Soviet bloc .[ 4]
The Peruvian embassy in Budapest closed in January 2007 and reopened in 2017.[ 5] [ 6] [ 7] Today, ethnic Hungarians in Latin America reside in Argentina and Peru for the most part.[ 8]
