The Hungarian authorities have banned the neo-Nazi march planned for this morning in Budapest on the occasion of the “Day of Honor” but the organizers still want to hold the demonstration in the surrounding woods. “Let’s not give up, this city is ours,” the leader of the far-right Legio Hungaria group that organized the celebration, Bela Incze, told the Kuruc.info website, outlining the alternative route chosen to avoid a clash with the police, present with huge forces in the center of the Hungarian capital.
Meloni’s pressure to bring Ilaria back to Italy: the aim is to expel our correspondent Ilario Lombardo 01 February 2024
As is known, it was on the occasion of last year’s rally that Ilaria Salis went to Budapest, where she was then arrested and has since been detained on charges of having participated in the physical attack of two right-wing extremists. The demonstration, which attracts neo-Nazis from many European countries every year, will still be held with participants in military uniforms and neo-Nazi flags, the site reports.
The “Day of Honor” celebrates the attempted escape from Buda Castle in 1945 by Nazi and Hungarian fascist troops in which around 20 thousand fighters died. It was also learned that another neo-Nazi organization, “Blood and Honor Hungaria” organized a concert on private land, which was also prohibited by the police.
