- 16 Mar 2017 9:00 AM
Hungarians still have to fight hard for their goals and dreams, Budapest Mayor István Tarlós said at the state celebration in the garden of the National Museum in Budapest on Wednesday. Speaking of the message of the 1848-49 revolution and war of independence, Tarlós said “we, Hungarians still have to stand up for ourselves rather than letting others express our nation’s interests for us”.
“In these historic times, we must find Hungary’s due place amid perhaps the biggest transformation of the world order since World War Two, amid the storms of the modern migration, its place as a committed protector of European and Christian values,” Tarlós said.
