Kover attributes political division to loss of trust

Digitalisation and the growing illegitimate influence of private power-holders behind it is a challenge threatening the dignity and individual rights of European Union citizens, Laszlo Kover, Hungary's speaker of parliament, said an online meeting on Monday. This is a common concern for both left-wing and right-wing politicians, Kover told the annual conference of EU parliamentary speakers. He shared the concern of his colleagues about "the polarisation of politics", and attributed division to "our loss of trust in one another".
