“Dark forces, evoking dark times,” he added.
He pointed out that “we stand with Father Pál, and will protect him. Mass, today at 6.30 p.m.” “Let’s stop the forces of hatred,” the Prime Minister appealed to members of the public.
Mr Orbán embedded into his post video footage of the Tuesday demonstration organised by independent Member of Parliament Ákos Hadházy, showing the demonstrators and the Member of Parliament arguing with the friar.
