The Basic Law carries lasting values, said Róbert Répássy, Parliamentary State Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, during the ceremonial release of stamps issued on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Basic Law coming into force in Budapest.
Róbert Répássy mentioned the Holy Crown and the Parliament building as parallels to the Basic Law. He said that the basic law is part of the legally continuous historical constitution, it pays homage to the Holy Crown and the Hungarian statehood expressed by it.
Sára Hegmanné Nemes, president of Magyar Posta Zrt., said that the inner dome hall of the Parliament and the Holy Crown can be seen on the block.
