lpv:translated text	"Peace to you from God! In our multilingual Europe I wanted to wish you peace in Hungarian, Romanian, Slovak and English. I was able to do this in the European Parliament, but under Slovak legislation, this would have been risky without violating the national language law. In one EU Member State, people can have a fine imposed on them for speaking languages other than the official language, which includes using one of Europe’s official languages, Hungarian. This is a downright scandal and disgrace. Take a look at the map of Slovakia I have here in front of me. Thanks to the Schengen Agreement, the border dividing Slovakia from Hungary has been dismantled, just like the Iron Curtain. However, the post-Communist chauvinist Slovak Government is now putting up new walls between people, linguistic barriers. We would like to thank President Jerzy Buzek for his mission to Slovakia aimed at resolving the issue. On this matter of public interest, the European Parliament should not adopt an ill-informed, convenient stance of non-intervention, but should enforce its own regulations and requirements which it supports in the area of human, minority and linguistic rights."@en1
