Mayor of Budapest Gergely Karacsony proposed on Thursday to grant the title of honorary citizen to predecessors Gabor Demszky and Istvan Tarlos next year when the city will celebrate the 30th anniversary of free local government. Speaking at a press conference after formally assuming his post as mayor, Karacsony said he would initiate the move with the Budapest General Assembly, adding that "the past thirty years represent important lessons and achievements to us". Karacsony said both Demszky and Tarlos had been elected and re-elected with strong mandates during their respective tenures. "Neither of them were perfect," he said. "They both made good and bad decisions but they both loved Budapest very much." He said a new era must be started for Budapest in order to "give the city back its battered freedom and prepare it to react to the great challenges that all metropolises in the world face".
