Thousands celebrate Europe Day in Budapest
Thousands of people turned out to celebrate Europe Day in Budapest’s Szabadság Square, where free concerts, children’s programmes and a running race were laid on to mark Hungary’s 18th year as an EU member state, the European Commission’s representation in Budapest said in a statement on Sunday.
Opening the event were Fidesz MEP Tamás Deutsch, Boglárka Bolya, deputy state secretary for EU relations at the justice Ministry, and Gábor Zupko, the European Commission representation’s head.
“We central Europeans created the preconditions for a united Europe when we gained our freedom more than thirty years ago,” Deutsch said.
“With many problems facing Europe, from Budapest we can convey a message to our European friends that they can count on us to solve the problems.”
Bolya said Hungary had been an active and important member of the bloc across the board over the past 18 years.
“We survived the global economic crisis together and fought together to put a break on the coronavirus, and we stand through our actions for peace,” she added.
Zupko said:
“We belong to a community of values and a community of interests, and these have many positive effects on Hungary.” He noted EU investments throughout the country and the Erasmus programme among other opportunities available to citizens.
Meanwhile, the officials expressed solidarity with Ukraine and Ukrainian refugees. Various aid organisations presented their work and Ukrainian artists gave performances.
One theme emphasised at the event was the European Union’s European Year of Youth this year.
Socialist MEP István Ujhelyi was on hand at the Europa Point tent to hand over Interrail passes.

Past years – many, my first visit to Nuremberg, Germany, the location & place – that the “little Austrian corporal” – infamous in his Legacy to Europe and the Global World, that history has PROVEN, delivered his CREEDS to the people of Germany.
Standing in the exact podium place – still their all these years on, a massive vastness it was, thoughts many, ran through my head, that was dominated by – if the people of Germany had thought through and asked them-selves – what if, this PROMISE – the messages contained in the various speeches Adolf Hitler – made from the podium on that I stood, what Germany & Europe and the rest of the world, all these decades on, would be SHAPED.
The events of European Day in Budapest 2022 – the speeches, what came from the mouths of those in postions of Political importance, the message they presented, by a designed procedure of PROPAGANDA, that was to the CREED of the Fidesz Party, under the leadership of the present Prime Minister of Hungary – Victor Orban, they will NEVER be released – from being past, current and into the FUTURE – the roles they play in Hungary to-day.
They stood before us – the words, promises FLOWED from there mouths – which factually Die-Casts them, that they :
(1) – take Ownership of past & present Hungary, under the CREEDS of the Fidesz Regime.
(2) – will be totally ACCOUNTABLE – for the past & future of Hungary – under the CREEDS of the Fidesz Regime.
(3) – that they will be held – seen RIGHTFULLY – taking Responsibility – under the CREEDS of the Fidesz Regime – for the past & future – of Hungary.
Pontification – standing before ALL, the broadness of information technology and social media – those who spoke at the European Day Festivities – May 2022, they WILL never – be Forgotten and History, which never Lies, will judge them.
The speeches and themes – a time in the history of Hungary, to undertake a deep and penetrative self examination, and not like the people of Germany “fell for” – in mass millions of numbers, by a brain washing Propaganda agenda – that history proved – was a Fabrication of the Truth and NEVER acheivable.
REMEMBER –
“We are the Masters of our Fate,
and the Captains of our Soul.”
