At an early See also:age Kallay manifested a deep See also:interest in politics, and especially in the Eastern Question. He travelled in See also:Russia, See also:European See also:Turkey and See also:Asia See also:Minor, gaining a thorough knowledge of See also:Greek, See also:Turkish and several See also:Slavonic See also:languages.

time. His views on See also:Balkan questions strongly influenced See also:Count See also:Andrassy, the Austro-Hungarian See also:minister for See also:foreign affairs. Leaving Belgrade in 1875, he resumed his seat in the Diet, and shortly afterwards founded the See also:journal Kelel Nepe, or Eastern Folk, in which he defended the vigorous policy of Andrassy. After the Russo-Turkish See also:War of 1878 he went to See also:Philippopolis as Austro-Hungarian See also:envoy extraordinary on the See also:International Eastern Rumelian See also:Commission.

office in See also:Vienna.

But, in his own See also:opinion, his masterpiece was an See also:academic oration on the See also:political and See also:geographical position of Hungary as a See also:link between See also:East and See also:West. In 1873 Kallay married the countess Vilma See also:Bethlen, who See also:bore him two daughters and a son.
