PM Orban: Closing party. See you next year, same time, same place!

The 32nd Balvanyos Summer Free University and Student Camp has ended, with the Hungarian premier's speech attracting huge international attention.

Some of the reports deliberately misrepresented the speech, accusing the prime minister of revisionism, while others, echoing the arguments of the Romanian nationalist provocateurs at the entrance to the camp, criticized the fact that the organizers of the free university had not allowed "the Romanians" to enter the venue. The press also extensively covered the Czech PM Petr Fiala’s reaction. He said: "The Czech Republic is a sovereign state and my government defends our national interests. We decide independently what we want, what we support or what we want to change in the European Union." His statement came in response to Viktor Orban's claim that the European federalists had launched an attack on the countries of the Visegrad Four bloc, and we can all see the result: the Czechs have essentially defected, Slovakia is wobbling, and only Poland and Hungary are holding out.
