In the Garden of the National Museum in Budapest on Friday, Prime Minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n said that \u201cWe want the scales to fall from the eyes of the peoples of Europe, and for them to realise and understand this: that without Christian culture there will be no free life in Europe; and that if we fail to defend our Christian culture we will lose Europe, and Europe will no longer belong to Europeans.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

At a ceremony marking the annual commemoration of the 1848\u20131849 Revolution and Freedom Fight, the Prime Minister stressed that without Christian culture there is no Hungarian freedom, and neither is there a free Hungary, \u201cregardless of one\u2019s personal belief in God, or lack of belief.\u201d\u00a0Mr. Orb\u00e1n stressed that \u201cWe want the scales to fall from the eyes of the peoples of Europe\u201d, so that they realise that in a liberal European empire everyone loses their freedom.<\/p>\n

He said that \u201cTo be truly free one cannot be the subject of an empire: one must be the child of a free nation,\u201d adding that \u201cA European can only be happy if they are allowed to freely decide their own fate and the fate of their nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

He observed that we know that the Hungarians of the first millennium chose to adopt Christianity from their own free will, and later Hungarians fought tooth and nail for the right to freely choose \u2013 against the will of the Ottomans, the Habsburgs and the Soviets.<\/p>\n

The notion of freedom, he said, is rooted in Christianity, because before God everyone is equal. He added that the Fundamental Law of Hungary also recognises the role of Christianity in preserving nationhood.\u00a0The Prime Minister said that \u201cwe are preparing for a spectacular Central European ascent, and restoration of our former greatness, [and] a Central European renaissance of overwhelming power\u201d.<\/p>\n

Mr. Orb\u00e1n went on to say, \u201cThe Poles are with us here today. They are with us here again, just as they were always with us: in 1848 and 1849, and then in the twentieth century. […] Without Poles, Hungary would not be free today, and Europe could not have been reunified.\u201d\u00a0He pointed out that Poland is the largest and leading country in Central Europe, and that \u201cWhen Poland is attacked from Brussels, the attack is against the whole of Central Europe \u2013 and against us Hungarians.\u201d His message to \u201cempire-builders who seek to cast their shadow over Central Europe\u201d was that they will always have to reckon with the strong bonds between Poland and Hungary.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister declared that \u201cevery year we have vowed by the God of the Hungarians that we shall stand up for our freedom and reject the role of slaves. This shared national avowal means that every Hungarian will stand up for every other Hungarian, and that all Hungarians will stand united for Hungary.\u201d\u00a0He described 15 March as the promise of national unity, quoting the first line of \u201cThe 12 Points\u201d: \u201cLet there be peace, liberty, and concord\u201d. Mr. Orb\u00e1n stated that this \u201creminds us that amid life\u2019s hurly-burly and quarrels there should be a shared national goal that unites us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs varied as they are, with their myriad disparate desires, Hungarians are still united by the shared will that in Hungary a free nation should live in its own independent state,\u201d the Prime Minister said.\u00a0He noted that, since 1848, time has decided what is true and what is not, and \u201cEverything found to be worthless has passed through the sieve of time, and only truth has remained. The truth is that Hungarians have a right to their own homeland, and they have a right to their own Hungarian lives, as they see fit.\u201d\u00a0He added that \u201cThere was never, is not, and never will be an empire \u2013 however strong and cunning \u2013 that could change this.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Mr. Orb\u00e1n, \u201cOur freedom fights have repeatedly ended in occupation, but we have never been truly defeated. Here \u2013 in the shadow of empires and at the crossroads of civilisations \u2013 in the end we won all our wars for the survival of the homeland and the nation, and for Christian culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were, we are, and we shall continue to be. The word \u2018Hungarian\u2019 will once more be exalted, and worthy of its great fame of old. This is how it shall be, again and again, until the end of time. This is the greatest triumph that a European nation like ours can achieve over empires.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister stressed that in the Europe of 1848 it was the Hungarians who fought the longest, and in 1956 it was also the Hungarians who turned to confront the Soviet army: the world\u2019s largest.\u00a0\u201cAnd, at the southern borders of Hungary, it was also we who halted the migrant invasion launched against Europe. It is also we who want a strong Europe, strong nation states and strong leaders at the head of Europe \u2013 not bringing problems here, but taking help there, to where it is needed.\u201d<\/p>\n

He spoke of the desire for a new beginning, in order to halt the decline of Europe, \u201cto end the fever dream of a United States of Europe, and to enable Europe to once again belong to Europeans.\u201d\u00a0He said that to love Hungary is to unify Hungarians again and again, and Hungarians can only be unified under the flag of freedom. According to the Prime Minister, if there is freedom there is everything: \u201chappy times of peace, security, many children, a flourishing country, a strong nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

He highlighted that \u201cFor us freedom is not a goal, but the route to our goals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Orb\u00e1n declared that \u201cWe Hungarians want simple things, just as in 1848: our own homeland, good neighbours, understanding partners, loving families, and work that has worth, meaning and results.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister stressed that \u201cBecause we are free, life holds wonderful things for us Hungarians. The years ahead will prove that we Hungarians did not come into this world to suffer in life, but to give life meaning.\u201d<\/p>\n

In closing, Mr. Orb\u00e1n said: \u201cHungary before everything, and God above all! Go for it Hungary, go for it Hungarians!\u201d<\/p>\n

He said that \u201cTo be truly free one cannot be the subject of an empire: one must be the child of a free nation,\u201d adding that \u201cA European can only be happy if they are allowed to freely decide their own fate and the fate of their nation.\u201d He observed that we know that the Hungarians of the first millennium chose to adopt Christianity from their own free will, and later Hungarians fought tooth and nail for the right to freely choose \u2013 against the will of the Ottomans, the Habsburgs and the Soviets. The notion of freedom, he said, is rooted in Christianity, because before God everyone is equal. He added that the Fundamental Law of Hungary also recognises the role of Christianity in preserving nationhood.\u00a0The Prime Minister said that \u201cwe are preparing for a spectacular Central European ascent, and restoration of our former greatness, [and] a Central European renaissance of overwhelming power\u201d. Mr. Orb\u00e1n went on to say, \u201cThe Poles are with us here today. They are with us here again, just as they were always with us: in 1848 and 1849, and then in the twentieth century. [...] Without Poles, Hungary would not be free today, and Europe could not have been reunified.\u201d\u00a0He pointed out that Poland is the largest and leading country in Central Europe, and that \u201cWhen Poland is attacked from Brussels, the attack is against the whole of Central Europe \u2013 and against us Hungarians.\u201d His message to \u201cempire-builders who seek to cast their shadow over Central Europe\u201d was that they will always have to reckon with the strong bonds between Poland and Hungary. The Prime Minister declared that \u201cevery year we have vowed by the God of the Hungarians that we shall stand up for our freedom and reject the role of slaves. This shared national avowal means that every Hungarian will stand up for every other Hungarian, and that all Hungarians will stand united for Hungary.\u201d\u00a0He described 15 March as the promise of national unity, quoting the first line of \u201cThe 12 Points\u201d: \u201cLet there be peace, liberty, and concord\u201d. Mr. Orb\u00e1n stated that this \u201creminds us that amid life\u2019s hurly-burly and quarrels there should be a shared national goal that unites us.\u201d \u201cAs varied as they are, with their myriad disparate desires, Hungarians are still united by the shared will that in Hungary a free nation should live in its own independent state,\u201d the Prime Minister said.\u00a0He noted that, since 1848, time has decided what is true and what is not, and \u201cEverything found to be worthless has passed through the sieve of time, and only truth has remained. The truth is that Hungarians have a right to their own homeland, and they have a right to their own Hungarian lives, as they see fit.\u201d\u00a0He added that \u201cThere was never, is not, and never will be an empire \u2013 however strong and cunning \u2013 that could change this.\u201d According to Mr. Orb\u00e1n, \u201cOur freedom fights have repeatedly ended in occupation, but we have never been truly defeated. Here \u2013 in the shadow of empires and at the crossroads of civilisations \u2013 in the end we won all our wars for the survival of the homeland and the nation, and for Christian culture.\u201d \u201cWe were, we are, and we shall continue to be. The word \u2018Hungarian\u2019 will once more be exalted, and worthy of its great fame of old. This is how it shall be, again and again, until the end of time. This is the greatest triumph that a European nation like ours can achieve over empires.\u201d The Prime Minister stressed that in the Europe of 1848 it was the Hungarians who fought the longest, and in 1956 it was also the Hungarians who turned to confront the Soviet army: the world\u2019s largest.\u00a0\u201cAnd, at the southern borders of Hungary, it was also we who halted the migrant invasion launched against Europe. It is also we who want a strong Europe, strong nation states and strong leaders at the head of Europe \u2013 not bringing problems here, but taking help there, to where it is needed.\u201d He spoke of the desire for a new beginning, in order to halt the decline of Europe, \u201cto end the fever dream of a United States of Europe, and to enable Europe to once again belong to Europeans.\u201d\u00a0He said that to love Hungary is to unify Hungarians again and again, and Hungarians can only be unified under the flag of freedom. According to the Prime Minister, if there is freedom there is everything: \u201chappy times of peace, security, many children, a flourishing country, a strong nation.\u201d He highlighted that \u201cFor us freedom is not a goal, but the route to our goals.\u201d Mr. Orb\u00e1n declared that \u201cWe Hungarians want simple things, just as in 1848: our own homeland, good neighbours, understanding partners, loving families, and work that has worth, meaning and results.\u201d The Prime Minister stressed that \u201cBecause we are free, life holds wonderful things for us Hungarians. The years ahead will prove that we Hungarians did not come into this world to suffer in life, but to give life meaning.\u201d In closing, Mr. Orb\u00e1n said: \u201cHungary before everything, and God above all! Go for it Hungary, go for it Hungarians!\u201d Source: kormany.hu \/
