Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s speech against anti-Semitism at the World Jewish Congress (WJC) in Budapest on 5 May 2013 failed to impress organisers, as the far-right Jobbik party staged a rally against Jews in the Hungarian capital. Orban condemned the rise in anti-Semitism in Hungary and in Europe more widely. He called it a danger that “threatens even us Christians” and voiced determination to stamp it out. WJC head Ronald S. Lauder told press that several recent events in Hungary have caused him alarm. He said that anti-Semitism and incitement against the Roma minority are becoming commonplace and “even acceptable” in Hungary. |
