Secretary Potápi: national cohesion is our most important achievement of the last 14 years
“The strengthened feeling, awareness and experience of national cohesion is our most important achievement of the last 14 years,” the state secretary in charge of policies for Hungarian communities abroad said on Friday, marking the August 20 national holiday.
Presenting the Kallós Zoltán Award for Hungarians Abroad to individuals and organisations recognised for their efforts in the interests of Hungarian communities beyond the border, Árpád János Potápi said that national cohesion “that is the keystone of our national identity manifests itself primarily through cooperation: in carrying out the tasks and celebrating our successes”.
“We Hungarians share in the difficulties by bearing the burdens together, and multiply our joy by celebrating together,” he said.
“This is what the community builders and organisers, political, cultural and religious leaders recognised with the Kallós Zoltán Award set an example in,” he added.

The use of the word Cohesion, the claim of it, as being the “corner-stone” of Hungarian life – individually and as a country, is a FABRICATION, of the Truth.
The DIVIDE of Hungary – destabilization, splintering, separation, the WIDENING of the Social Gap, the rich get Richer and the Poor poorer, that factually we know records 3.1 Million and growing Hungarians living in POVERTY, a country, that from the PLACE we have been taken – over 14 years -DELIVERED to, by the Orban – Fidesz Government, just on our Economic & Financial place – being a catastrophe, to try, endeavour to use the word COHESION, the action of FACT of forming a united whole, is LUDICROUS.
Cow’s do it in Paddocks.
There is no evidence to substantiate the use, of using the word COHESION as Secretary Potapi does to Hungary.
Propaganda.
Oh Fabrication how can you be do blind. 3 million happy sheep can’t be all wrong. We may be poor sheep but we sleep well lubricated with our ration of palinka. Who cares for money? Money only confuses people, poverty is a blessing from FIDEZ and Master Orban, our lives aren’t confused by facts. To hell with poverty, we get drunk on cheap wine,
If this is what national cohesion looks like, what would disunity be?
like your word usage – Londonsteve.
Agree with Fabrication also, its all a load of veiling fact and replacing it with a heap of lies.
Its all a ruse, an attempt, a poor one at that, to disguise the fact that what is happening in Hungary, is the reverse to being a country in cohesion.
The commenters are hysterical, in every sense of the word.
Well over half the country is extremely happy with the government’s work. A 100%, or even 90% or 80%, consensus can never be achieved on anything, which is why you cater to a clear majority while ensuring the rights of the minority/-ies not be infringed. The minority may grumble all it wants. They may want us to be flooded with hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens, they may want our five-year-old kids to be taught how to put a rubber on a banana and that there’s no such thing as boys and girls, and they may want our money and our young men to be limitlessly sent to Ukraine.
The majority doesn’t so cry more.
NO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, NO GENDER IDEOLOGY, NO WAR!
The GREAT Divide.
The Great Demise.
Hungary – “propelled” by a Government of 15 years who and I CHALLENGE the commentator Michael Steiner in his percentages of the population in favour or against the Orban – Fidesz Government.
Poverty – GROWS in Hungary of 3.1 million.
Hamlets – increase in Hungary.
Social Equality – the Rich get Richer and the Poor get Poorer – in Hungary – RAMPANT.
The Government of Hungary under Victor Orban – are and worsening in being in a position of INSOVANCY.
Idiotic to talk of Cohesion in Hungary.
Steiner, I’d submit that well over half the country cannot be delighted with the government when they voted for opposition politicians at the last European election. Fidesz achieved a mere 44% of the vote, its worst result in two decades. We can agree that 44% is still a strong result but more voters voted against Fidesz than for it. Hungary is the least cohesive European country I know of. Part of cohesion is a desire to compromise and include opposition voters in building a country that works for all while Fidesz appears to only want to eliminate opposition and to disenfranchise people that fail to tow the party line. This manifests itself in a variety of ways even at grass roots level, such as promotion opportunities in the state sector being denied to opposition supporters or even those that fail to noisily support the government. Your employment may even be terminated on spurious ground. All this serves to keep the average citizen in a state of fear with the aim of keeping their mouth shut.
