Candidates of five political parties in the Budapest municipal election set for June 9 participated in a debate hosted by commercial television channel ATV late on Sunday and presented their proposals for the capital’s development.
In their first reactions, commentators find the debate of the eleven top candidates for the European election interesting although not particularly instructive.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán told participants of the Peace March in Budapest on Saturday that giving up on peace meant "choosing to die for the cause of Ukraine", but "we do not want to shed blood for Ukraine, we will not go to war, and we will not die for somebody else on foreign soil", he said.
More than half of Hungarians, 55%, believe that people from Eastern Europe are treated as second-class citizens within the EU, according to a Závecz Research survey commissioned by RTL.
