The president’s words come after the condemnation, with a joint declaration signed by 14 EU countries, of the Hungarian law «against gay propaganda towards minors». The declaration solicits the intervention of the Commission “by all means” in defense of rights. To sign it, at the last moment and after many divisions, also Italy. «At the end of the General Affairs Council», explained the Undersecretary for European Affairs Enzo Amendola, «we did not receive satisfactory clarifications from Hungary on the laws approved which produce discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. For this reason, after a debate, Italy also signed the request of the other 13 EU member states ». Why so much waiting? “There is no mystery,” the undersecretary continued. «It was right first to listen to the Hungarian government and the presentation of the articles (of the new law on LGBTI rights, ed).
