Today Hungary is significantly freer than Western European countries, and media relations are clear evidence of this, the Minister of the Prime Minister’s Office stressed at the conference entitled Wars of Justice II in Budapest

The minister said the EU was trying to amplify the voice of those forces in a member state that were in a minority in the elections. He said it was an illegitimate and undemocratic attempt to favor political objectives that did not get the necessary majority in a democratic contest, “by blackmail, withholding money, threatening, disenfranchising”.

The question is whether the EU will have a leadership and institutions that can tolerate the existence of values that run counter to the exclusive thinking they have created.

Gergely Gulyás stressed that in Hungary, very different values are represented in the mainstream press, from the radical far left to the radical right. Everyone has a forum, everyone can be found, and everyone has the opportunity to participate in the debates of Hungarian public life.

the debates are fuller and freer than in Western Europe, where the press, which used to call itself conservative, has given up its positions on all important issues.

Gergely Gulyás said that in Hungary, freedom of the press cannot be questioned, everyone can write according to their own convictions, and no one can be stigmatized for an opinion.

According to the minister, the threat of the 21st century is that left-liberal topics will become exclusive, and those who do not accept them cannot be part of politics.
