HUNGARIAN JEWISH CONGRESS CALLS FOR EXILING RACISM FROM PARLIAMENT

Hungary's democratic parliamentary parties should make joint efforts "to prevent Parliament from becoming a forum of discriminators and anti-Semites," the Hungarian Jewish Congress (MZSK) said on Sunday. In a statement sent to MTI, MZSK called it a dangerous development that representatives of a group whose supporters kept voicing racist and anti-Semitic views during the election campaign had made their way to Parliament. The congress has therefore asked the democratic parliamentary parties to isolate the voices of hatred and guarantee that the effective laws be enforced by all. The statement followed the inaugural session of Parliament on Friday where Gabor Vona, leader of the radical nationalist Jobbik party, stirred controversy by wearing a black vest with symbols of the party's banned paramilitary arm, the Hungarian Guard.
