Flipping through the pages of 20th century history, according to the minister, it is evident that politicians who are stupid enough to dream of war and refuse to listen to the common sense of the people and the soldiers never make good decisions.
From beside the graves of the heroes who died for their country, we send them a message: we Hungarians do not want war, we want peace, we do not want dead heroes, but living men, husbands and fathers. Decisions about Hungary can only be made in Hungary, and only we Hungarians can decide on the question of war and peace,
he underlined.
Minister Szalay-Bobrovniczky called on us to renew our pledge that Hungarians will never again go to war for foreign interests.
State, municipal and civil organizations laid flowers at the ceremony. On June 19, 2001, the Hungarian Parliament passed into law the Act on the memorializing of Hungarian heroes and named the last Sunday of May the annual Day of the Commemoration of Hungarian Heroes who gave their lives for the homeland.
