Election 2024 – Karacsony: ‘We want to build a developing city with Budapest residents’
Karacsony told the press after casting his vote at the European parliamentary and local elections in Budapest’s District 2 that “those in power do not have a message for Budapest residents, only a declaration of war” but “we do not want to fight, we want to build a developing city together, with Budapest residents”.
He said those that support his programme should vote for the Parbeszed-Greens-DK-Socialists list in Budapest.
“Although I have a programme and a team, there are European Union resources available for Budapest to develop, the one thing that is still missing is a supporting majority in the general assembly with which I can implement this programme,” he said.
Karacsony said he had always viewed David Vitezy, the candidate of LMP and the With David Vitezy for Budapest Association, as a Fidesz candidate and “this has proven to be true”.
In response to a question, he said he could work together with any party that presented proposals serving the interests of Budapest. “I am very good at finding clever compromises and I will practice this ability”, he added.
