Use of National Defence during Emergencies in Hungary and Poland, in Particular for Problems Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic
Abstract
The aim of the study was to examine the Hungarian Defence Forces’ role in implementing state measures against the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. However, we decided to look at it from a comparative perspective, as we are also examining how and to what extent the Polish Armed Forces were involved in overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic. The legal framework for the involvement of the armed forces in the comparative performance of tasks in this area by the civil administration was also examined.
