Fidesz: Left wing hurt ethnic Hungarians 13 years ago, DK revives ‘hate campaign’
Change language:
An official of Hungary’s ruling Fidesz party said on Tuesday that the left wing had “unforgivably” hurt ethnic Hungarians in the referendum on dual citizenship 13 years ago, and now the Democratic Coalition (DK) was again waging a “hate campaign” against them.
Balázs Hidvéghi, Fidesz’s communications chief, said in a statement that Ferenc Gyurcsány, the former Socialist prime minister who now leads DK, had turned Hungarians against Hungarians, and for that reason the referendum on whether to allow dual citizenship for ethnic Hungarians living beyond the border held in December 2004 had failed.
“Thirteen years after that shameful day, we can say that thanks to the Fidesz alliance with the Christian Democrats, belief in the Hungarian nation and the number of our citizens has grown.
One million Hungarians abroad have once again legally become a part of the Hungarian nation … we are a million stronger,” the statement said.
Gyurcsány was, is and always will be a sick person. Full of hate against Fidesz. It is always Ferenc who is right and who may say what he thinks (if he has brains between his ears)
