Szijjarto slams UEFA organisation for rejecting flags of historic Hungary
Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto on Friday slammed the anti-discrimination organisation of the European Football Association (UEFA FARE) for its report on the use of flags depicting historic Hungary at a match between Hungary and Italy in September.
Responding to a question at a press conference on a different matter, Szijjarto said the organisation which proposed banning the image had “no idea of Hungarian history”.
FARE “is basically a volunteer workers’ militia living for reporting others on inane issues,” Szijjarto said, adding that he hoped the UEFA leadership would “free European football from this militia because they are trouble, and they will continue to cause trouble.”
