In his parliamentary speech, the Member of Parliament recalled the referendum 18 years ago, which, although invalid, deprived Hungarians abroad of the right to acquire Hungarian citizenship.
Pál Zsigmond Barna, member of parliament from Fidesz, shared on his Facebook page that he spoke in Parliament on Monday, December 5, 2004.
Every time we remember this date, which has become a sad symbol, we relive the horror again and again and ask ourselves the question, what drives someone to do something to his nation like what Ferenc Gyurcsány and the left that lined up behind him did at that time, the politician wrote in his post.
As long as the national government is in office, our compatriots across the border can count on a helping hand. We will never, ever give up on Hungarian interests!" he concluded. You can watch the full speech here:
