Freedom of assembly in Hungary and the need for the Commission to act (debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. The Middle East is burning. Ukraine is burning. We have a migration crisis, an economic crisis. We don't have a gun. And you're debating that Orban has banned children from attending a parade where men walk in thongs and muzzles. I think it's normal to protect children from any strange behavior. Instead of talking about real problems, you are dealing with something that is in your heads. I don't see a need here – it's for those who laugh: Mr Śmiszek, Mr Wawrynkiewicz and others – to debate your sexual preferences and to talk about who is going out on the street. As for the children: Hungary defends the youngest against such images simply not being in front of them. It is an ordinary right to preserve the child's rights to development without any negative stimuli, without any images. I don't know if in Warsaw a parade with you in a muzzle or a thong is something that is natural. I think that this is a substitute topic and we should absolutely address Europe's problems, not stupidities.
