"I read in the Slovak press what Mr Gallagher already said. I would therefore say it in the Slovak press if I wanted to highlight the fact that the conflict currently going on cannot be presented as either a conflict between two states or a conflict between two peoples. There are problems with a certain law. I am happy to support Mr Swoboda’s claim that we are moving in a peaceful, calm direction, looking for a way out. If only he had not said that this law did not violate fundamental rights. For instance, when a mother who is holding her 4-year-old child’s hand at the hospital in a Slovak town is told off for comforting her child in Hungarian, who is frightened of the procedure the doctor is going to perform, we cannot say that this does not violate their rights. We cannot say either that this does not feature in the law. The problem lies exactly in the law’s presentation. The law actually bans those exchanges in hospitals where the Hungarian language is under-represented. I therefore think that there are very serious problems with this. Slovakia has reaped what it has sown as a result of an extremist party coming to power. On the other hand, the Hungarians have not wiped out their minorities, but have kept them separate."@en1
