"The Slovak Republic applies a high standard in relation to ethnic minorities and, at the same time, one of the most moderate national language laws in Europe. Despite this, it is under permanent pressure from Hungarian Members who do not hesitate to employ lies and fabrications in order to influence European public opinion. We have witnessed this at almost every session of the European Parliament since its expansion in 2004. Hungary is a country that has almost completely eliminated minorities in its own territory and is attempting a gross intervention in the affairs of the Slovak Republic. This is totally unacceptable. I believe that the European institutions will not charge into this affair like a bull in a china shop. Slovakia will resolve problems relating to use of the national language by cultural means and in accordance with European traditions. The implementing regulation for the amendment to the language law confirms the sensitive approach to all of the ethnic groups and nationalities living in Slovakia."@en1
