Gergely Gulyás, the prime minister’s chief of staff, urged European Christian Democrat conservative political forces to marshal together at the Summer Open University in the Carpathian Basin in Sátoraljaújhely, in north-eastern Hungary, on Saturday.
With smaller parties pitted against each other and the shift to the left of the European People’s Party (EPP), Gulyas said “the field has opened”.
“Our task is to bring together Christian Democrat movements, parties and forces and create an institutional framework for them,”
he added.
Gulyás said Christian Democrats are “particularly strong” in Central Europe, but have no representation on the European political scene any longer.
He said “vast differences” exist between systems of values in Western Europe and Central Europe, adding that
“Hungarians don’t tell Swedes, Belgians or Germans how to live, and we expect the same in return”.
At a panel discussion on the “Renaissance of Christian Democrats in Europe”, Gulyás pointed out the importance of establishing an alliance of parties to the right of the EPP that is free of radical elements.
“We would gladly blaze the trail ahead,”
he added.

Alll done befor with FIDESZ it didn’t work lets leave church out of politics as it can devide as well as unite a country here it will divide it. And of course we can not put the church down or families ?. Lets stop monopolies oh hold on that is what this goverment is doing with all sectors of life pharmaceutical, gambling, education, to be able to breathe fresh air if they could do I am sure they would.. rant over.. the world is still round and rotating a little warmer now but we can keep going..
All these politicians preaching Christianity. Would love to know when any of them last went to church AND MEANT IT! Not going to be seen to go but wanting to attend because they hold the ‘strong Christian beliefs’ they are always pushing for this country!
Orbanism, Fidesz, Fidesz’s allies= everything actual Christianity is not. They do nothing the Our Lord Jesus preached. On the contrary, they do precisely the opposite
What would “Mario” know about religion – yet alone Christianity ?
He is nothing but a stateless illegal migrant without any purpose to his miserable existence on this planet.
