COF-COKA: Peace March message ‘No to war’
A Peace March organised for Hungary's March 15 national holiday will convey the message of a "clear no to war", the founder of the pro-government Civic Union (COF) and head of the associated COKA foundation told a press conference on Wednesday.
Laszlo Csizmadia said the march will start out from in front of the Komjadi swimming pool on the Buda side at noon. The crowd will march across Margaret Bridge and reach Parliament via Szent Istvan Boulevard and Bajcsy-Zsilinszky Avenue.
In front of Parliament, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán will address a central commemoration of Hungary’s 1848-49 freedom fight in the afternoon.
Delegations from Poland, Italy, and Spain will join the march, Csizmadia said.
