Hungary marks the anniversary of the anti-Soviet revolt which started on October 23, 1956.
László Kövér said 1956 was the tragedy of a country wanting to break out of communism but being let down by the key players of world politics.
As well as talks with Wolfgang Schmidt, Gergely Gulyás attended a commemoration of Hungary’s 1956 anti-Soviet revolt, held at the Hungarian embassy in Berlin.
Gergely Gulyás said 1956 was a milestone in Hungary’s national development which strongly determined what people thought about important values.
The Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation in the United States has a vital role in keeping the events of many decades ago in the minds of younger generations.
Speech by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán at the opening ceremony of the Mindszentyneum
The national flag of Hungary was hoisted with military honors in front of Parliament on Sunday morning.
In his address marking the 66th anniversary of Hungary's 1956 anti-Soviet revolution, the prime minister said "we're able to protect Hungary's interests both at home and abroad".
Drawing on the events of Hungary’s 1,000-year history, Prime Minister Orbán said that “whoever wants to sit on our shoulders is doomed to fail. We were here when the first conquering empire attacked us, and we will be here when the last one collapses.”
”On the 66th anniversary of our national holiday this year, we can say for the first time that we have been free to remember '56 for as long as the communist dictatorship tried to erase, paint over and silence the memory of the revolution.”
