Karacsony calls for 'gentle revolution'

Hungary's divisions must be healed and a gentle revolution is needed, Budapest Mayor Gergely Karacsony said in a video message marking the March 15 national holiday on Facebook on Monday. "To do this, we need to close the chapter on the past thirty, including the last ten years," the mayor said. Hungary has become two separate countries because it has been systematically torn in two, Karacsony said. "We can see, hear and feel it on our skin. This was done using the old method of 'divide and conquer', by pitting half the people against the other half, for it is always easier to find enemies than solutions," he said.
