On October 6, our Embassy and the Liszt Institute in Ljubljana, in cooperation with the József Attila Hungarian Cultural Society, held a commemoration in memory of the Arad Martyrs at the Ljubljana Castle.
The commemoration began with a speech by Chargé d’Affaires a.i. Krisztián Tóth, followed by a wreath laying ceremony held by the base of the commemorative plate dedicated to Count Lajos Batthyány, the Prime Minister of the first independent Hungarian Government. The guests then proceeded to the Liszt Institute, where Director Zoltán Csaba Thuróczy gave a speech. Guests at the event included Károly Holecz, Slovene National Minority Advocate at the Hungarian Parliament, Dušan Orban, President of the Hungarian National Self-governing Community in Prekmurje and Gertrud Kelemen, Consul General of Hungary in Lendava.
