1956 – Jobbik: ‘No bargaining’ over independence or freedom
Budapest, October 23 (MTI) – The country’s independence and the freedom of its people are “not for sale”, Gábor Vona, head of the Jobbik party, said at a commemoration of the 1956 anti-Soviet uprising at Budapest’s Corvin Cinema, a shrine of the revolution, on Sunday.
In his address, Vona paid tribute to the revolutionaries, and urged that the list of communist-era informers should be made public. He also urged that perpetrators of violent acts during anti-government demonstrations on the same day in 2006 should be punished.
