Hungary's PM Orbán Starts Campaign Tour
- 11 Mar 2014 8:00 AM
The cabinet felt that its most important job in the past four years was to “protect Hungarian people and defend their interests against banks, utility providers and Brussels bureaucrats”, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán declared in Nagykanizsa yesterday as he began a campaign tour of country.
During the tour, the prime minister wants to consolidate or even increase Fidesz’s voter base, Népszabadság reports. Strategists say he will speak only of positive messages that enhance the image of a fighting activist defending the nation’s interests.
He will deliver his last set-piece speech on Heroes Square on March 29, when hundreds of thousands of Fidesz supporters will be expected to turn out for the day’s pro-government Peace March.
