"The Hungarian representatives are misleading European public opinion with many untruths. They claim, for example, that citizens can be fined for using a minority language, that doctors of Hungarian nationality will be able to work only in the official Slovak language, or that religious services can be conducted only in the official language. We have now heard Hungarian MEPs talking nonsense about policemen not being allowed to respond to tourists in Hungarian or English. None of this is true. On the contrary, the amended law increases the possibilities for using ethnic minority languages compared to the situation previously. The amendment does not interfere with private communications between citizens and does not enable fines to be imposed on individuals. The conformity of the amended law to international standards has been confirmed by the European authorities in the area of minorities – OSCE High Commissioner Knut Vollebæk and EU Commissioner Leonard Orban. In my opinion, the Hungarian community is exploiting this cause in an attempt to conceal growing extremism and the murder of Roma people in Hungary."@en1
