Nations in the Carpathian Basin Can Only Survive Cooperating with Each Other

"Empires have invaded us from the East and the West, and then disappeared into the abyss of history, while Hungary, tormented by them, has always been reborn on the foundations laid by Saint Stephen," said Laszlo Kover, speaker of the Hungarian parliament.

He emphasized that the Hungarians, as the nation living in the largest number in the Carpathian Basin today, have a responsibility in answering the question concerning the future commensurate with their population, and the Hungarians' answer is that the nations living together in the Carpathian Basin can only survive as the collective heirs of Saint Stephen, cooperating with each other.  Only states that protect their national identity have a chance of survival in the face of global private forces that seek to eliminate all European national states and expropriate their resources, he said.

Without a sense of belonging there is no nation, and without a nation there is no justification for national states, and thus – under the name of European United States on our continent, for example – they can be merged and liquidated to meet the interests of global private forces, Laszlo Kover stated.

He pointed out that the consequences of the operation preparing the ground for this are all the abnormalities that can be seen in the European Union today in the political, economic or cultural fields. "Our humanity is now under a comprehensive siege," Laszlo Kover said. Only states that respect the identity of national communities and are able to cooperate with each other will have enough strength to protect themselves and stand up against the threat posed by global private forces, he added.
