"Today, there is again a need for compromise. For compromise not in the superficial political sense of the word, but in a deeper sense. What I mean by compromise is that we Hungarians must finally come to terms with each other, for this is the only way to achieve inner peace," Ader said in front of the presidential Sandor Palace, bringing up as an example the era of Ferenc Deak (1803-1876), the ...

- current affairs
Viktor Yanukovych and Viktor Orbán have more in common than their first name. In February 2010, only a couple of months before Orbán's political triumph, Yanukovych staged a remarkable comeback, recovering from the humiliation and disgrace he suffered in Ukraine's election of 2004.

Let's just wait for the final vote. But we know, don't we, that there won't be any problem with his election on May 2, the date apparently picked for the glorious event. Áder will be elected after the first round of ...
