Sad news on Easter Monday: Pope Francis passed away.
With admirable passion he stood up for the underprivileged, for human rights and peace. His voice was desperately needed. But as he would have said: “andate avant”
- may he rest in peace!

Orbán announces Hungary’s withdrawal from the ICC—a regrettable move that further distances him from the international community of values. The ICC embodies the commitment to the Nuremberg Principles and the fight against impunity for international crimes. Hungary should urgently reconsider.
