On 4 February 2012 passed away the writer and far-right politician István Csurka(1) who was buried two weeks later in the Kerepesi Cemetery,(2) in the National Pantheon of the heroes of 1956(3) in Budapest. In connection with this fact, the Budapest Organization of the Imre Nagy Society has published the following declaration:
The Budapest Organization of the Imre Nagy Society condemns the fact that István Csurka who became notorious for his reviving Neo-Nazi way of thinking has been buried in the National Pantheon of the heroes of 1956 in Budapest.____________________
We reject the lie, now suggested also by this burial, that the revolution of 1956 would have had Nazi features.
We repeatedly draw the attention of the public opinion both in Hungary and in the rest of the world to the honorary tombs of Arrow Cross leaders and mass murders maintained in the National Pantheon(4) that violate morality, as well as the memory of the 1956 revolutionists and hinder evoking of their ideas.
On behalf of the Budapest Organization of the Imre Nagy Society:
Dr. Ferenc Donáth, President
