„Ungaria nu e o ţară feribot. Poporul a făcut o alegere clară”. Peter Magyar, la comemorarea Revoluţiei ungare din 1956
Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar emphasized the country's commitment to being a reliable EU ally during the 70th anniversary of the 1956 revolution. His speech contrasted with Viktor Orban's nationalist rhetoric, advocating for a clear choice towards a free and democratic Europe. Magyar stated that Hungary cannot float indefinitely between East and West, highlighting the need for trust and cooperation within the EU. The event was attended by EU leaders and foreign dignitaries, while Orban's Fidesz party boycotted the ceremony.
