Russians, go home! Let’s defend European sovereignty and democracy! DATE: Thursday, April 2, 2026, 5:00 p.m. VENUE: Duna Event Center (1138 Budapest, Dunavirág Street 2) SPEAKERS: Sandro Gozi – Secretary-General of the European Democratic Party (EDP) Péter Márki-Zay – President of the Everyone’s Hungary People’s Party (MMN) Stefano Bottoni – historian, associate professor at the University of Florence LET’S DEFEND EUROPEAN SOVEREIGNTY AND DEMOCRACY! Join us on Thursday, April 2, at 5:00 p.m. at the Duna Event Center in Budapest for the European Democratic Party’s conference on European sovereignty, Hungarian democracy, security, transparency in public life, and countering Russian influence. This is more than a political event. It is a call to defend Europe. In these historic times, when Europe is facing increasing pressure from hostile powers and there are growing attempts to undermine its democratic systems, we must make it clear: there is no place in the European Union for Russian intelligence agents; political networks serving foreign interests; or systems built on corruption, opacity, and dependency. The model of Viktor Orbán, Robert Fico, and Andrej Babiš poses a serious threat to the Western world: it weakens European unity, undermines trust in democratic institutions, and opens the door to growing foreign influence. Hungary deserves better than this—Europe must defend its own sovereignty. We stand for: a sovereign Europe capable of defending its democracy and security; a Hungary—and every European country—that is firmly committed to the European project; transparency and accountability in public life; freedom, democracy, and the rule of law. This conference is for everyone who wants to defend democracy, rejects foreign interference, wants to fight corruption, and wants to build a free, strong, and truly European Hungary. Join us in Budapest! Stand up for Europe’s sovereignty! Stand up for democracy! Stand up for Europe!
