Hungary parlt speaker: Common values unite Europe's citizens - CoE conference

When discussing Europe's future it is worth bearing in mind that, thanks to their common values, the bloc's citizens are more united than divided, Laszlo Kover, Hungary's Speaker of Parliament, told a conference of speakers of the Council of Europe in Athens on Friday. Speaking on day two of a meeting organised by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), Kover said in his speech that national identities and the mother tongue formed the basis of "our European identity" and that Europe's strength derived from national parliamentarism and the successful cooperation of nations, as well as solidarity with national minorities.
