My plenary speech on Recent legislative changes in Hungary and their impact on fundamental rights
Dear citizens of proud Hungary,
Today, I choose to speak directly to you.
For too long, you have been told that Brussels forces you to accept “foreign values”
and that the West seeks to undermine your unique culture. But let me be clear: our message is not against you.
We only ask that every person in Hungary be treated without discrimination, that no one be forced to hide who they are.
Banning Pride and permitting AI surveillance send a dangerous signal that some among you are less worthy of freedom and respect.
This is not the message of the European Union, nor is it our wish to interfere with your traditions.
Instead, we stand for a Hungary where every citizen can live openly, with dignity and without fear.
Dear friends,
The FIDESZ Government has restricted your right to speak freely, and your right to peaceful assembly.
It is our duty to stand against this, Hungarians deserve the same rights as everyone else in our Union.
We believe in your strength and in your rich cultural heritage.
Our goal is simple: to protect the rights of all Hungarians, ensuring freedom and equality to every person in this great nation.
