Dear Mr. President of the Republic! Mr. Chairman! Rectors! Dear members of the Nemeskürty Family! Ladies and Gentlemen! Let me join in welcoming everyone to today's memorial ceremony! They say that there is a way for us, mere mortals to find immortality here on this world: it may be achieved by leaving a mark on the memories of others—because those who are remembered truly live on. Memorial days are tangible expressions of this kind of immortality. They are often linked to a historical event, date, or

H.E. Mr. Bart De Wever Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium Rue de la Loi 16 1000 Brussels, Belgium Budapest, May 14, 2025 Dear Prime Minister, As Chairman of the Board of Mathias Corvinus Collegium—one of Central Europe’s largest talent development institutions—I am writing to express my deep concern over recent efforts to intimidate an academic conference organized by MCC Brussels. Far-left activists targeted the original venue with threats and vandalism, forcing the organizers to relocate the event at the last minute. These tactics are a troubling reminder of the

We're being fined one million euros per day – simply for protecting our borders.This isn’t a line from a political pamphlet – this is the current reality of Hungary’s position within the European Union. During my recent trip to London, I gave an interview to GB News, one of the UK’s newest news channels.

My task here today is to interpret between the language of politics and the language of business. I am attempting

Dear Mr President! Mr Chancellor! Members of the Council! Ladies and Gentlemen! Hungary is a country where the audience typically appreciates spontaneity. My own preference would also be for improvisation. However, as they say, a man grows, and so the time has come that I finally arrived with a prepared speech.

Our world is experiencing fundamental changes. The neoliberal world order has failed, the balance of power is shifting, and a new era — the age of sovereignty — is unfolding. In this new order, only those countries can remain successful that have a unique political and economic system tailored to their own, respective societies, that are able to ensure stability and protect their independence. Hungary is a peace-loving nation. Therefore, we can only support diplomatic efforts that lead to genuine solutions and lasting peace. It is

"Family formation and the future” Budapest, April 2, 2025   Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, Life often presents us with two equal paths, yet we instinctively choose one over the other. I experience this every time I visit Buda Castle from the underground parking lot. There, I have a choice: take the elevator to either the first floor or the second. I always choose the second floor. Rationally, it makes no sense—it’s an extra stop that doesn’t bring me any closer to my destination. And yet, I always take this
