Matteo Salvini, who has been a frequent guest at Hungarian national celebrations in Rome since 2018, delivered a speech in which he described the 1956 Revolution in Hungary as "one of the darkest yet most radiant moments in history," symbolizing civic resistance, courage, and independence.
He noted that Hungarians today deserve the same independence, "because if we accept whom Italians or Germans choose in their elections, then we must also accept whom the Hungarians have elected."
He added that between Hungary and Italy "there runs not a red line, but a red-white-green one," referring to the colors of the two nations’ flags. "Brussels is blocking funds for Hungary for ideological and political reasons. That is neither fair, nor democratic, nor normal. But while some work to isolate Viktor Orban, we will not leave him alone, and the community that supports him is growing."
President Trump, too, is unpopular in certain salons, but fortunately, elections are not held in the salons,
Matteo Salvini said.
In closing, he cited the construction of the Hungarian port in Trieste as a model of cooperation between the two countries. He announced that he will attend Fidesz's congress in November and noted that the friendship between the two nations is also symbolized by the fact that Italy has given Hungary an excellent manager for Hungary's national football team in the person of Marco Rossi.
