The Hungarian National Electoral Committee has rejected my objection to the racist election advertising film of Our Homeland Movement (MHM), together with the help of votes of delagates of Fidesz-KDNP, Jobbik, MHM, Momentum and the Workers Party of Gyula Thürmer.
According to the representatives of these above organizations, the election propaganda mantra of the Gypsy crime does not violate the Fundamental Law, namely the dignity of a nationality community.
In my opinion, in the current situation in Europe all forms of racism must be opposed, so I call on the leaders of the organizations that have rejected my objection to dissociate themselves from the decision of their delegates, and to address the President of the Republic jointly, asking him to distance himself from the racist organizations.
I initiate that Hungarian democratic organizations to turn jointly to the OSCE for condemning the racist propaganda that violates the purity of the election.
