Navracsics: Nation held together by close-knit communities
In a world torn apart by crises, only nations with communities holding together can survive, the minister for public administration and regional development said in Revfulop on Sunday, ahead of the August 20 national holiday celebrating Hungary's statehood.
Speaking in Revfulop, at Lake Balaton, Tibor Navracsics said Hungary would remain strong if its “close-knit communities” helped the weak and “if we don’t let us be distracted by fake problems and fake debates.”
“The legacy of St Stephen … was creating a church, a state and a community, providing security not only for those of Hungarian ethnicity but all nations who felt Hungary was their homeland.”
St Stephen, Hungary’s first king and first Christian ruler, “created traditions … that helped us and gave us strength to preserve the nation in the future as well,” he said.
