"Mr President, in the course of the 20th century, Hungary wrote world history on two occasions, and played a role in world history twice. First in 1956, and then in 1989-90, when the country released the German refugees in the Central European transition period. The 1956 revolution was followed in Poland by the Solidarity movement and in 1968 by the Prague Spring. 1956 marked a Hungarian uprising against Soviet occupation, a fight for freedom, a fight for national independence, and at the same time a fight against Communist dictatorship. Without the 1956 revolution there would not have been a negotiated revolution in 1989 or a peaceful regime change in Hungary, and Hungary would not be a member of the EU today. In the words of Albert Camus: ‘Hungary conquered and in chains has done more for freedom and justice than any other people in the world in the past twenty years.’"@en1
