| dc.description.abstract-translated | This study explores the shifting nature of Franco-Hungarian relations in the interwar period, with particular attention to the impact of the Locarno Treaties. While France and Hungary had been on opposing sides during the First World War, early postwar attempts at rapprochement failed, and the Treaty of Trianon entrenched their antagonism. The signing of the Locarno Treaties in 1925 initially reinforced this division, but in the second half of the 1920s a cautious thaw began. France, increasingly concerned by German revisionism, viewed Hungary as a potential partner, while Hungarian elites sought to balance their diplomatic orientation. Yet the French refusal to support Hungarian revisionist claims, combined with France’s weakened position in Central Europe, led to a renewed estrangement by the mid-1930s. This article argues that the Locarno framework, while encouraging some superficial improvement in bilateral relations, ultimately failed to foster lasting cooperation, as deeper structural and strategic contradictions between the two states prevailed. | en |
