Government outraged for anti-Christian violence in Pakistan

The Hungarian government condemns instigation against religious or ethnic communities, as well as any actions violating the dignity of members of those groups, Tristan Azbej, state secretary at the foreign ministry, said on Facebook on Friday.

Referring to recent attacks against Christians in Pakistan’s Jaranwala region, the state secretary said the violence “could not be justified by any argument”. He welcomed remarks by the acting prime minister of Pakistan firmly condemning the attacks and pledging to bringing the perpetrators to court.

“We are firmly committed to promoting a dialogue between different religions and cultures,” the state secretary said. He expressed “sincere solidarity with Pakistan’s attacked Christian community”. The Hungarian government supports needy Christian and other communities in other countries through the Hungary Helps programme, he said.
