Signs of the Future: Prime Minister Lights Up A Cross Over Budapest (Video)

A beautifully shining cross formed by drones lit up on Budapest's sky over the Danube on August 20 for the Day of Saint Stephen, the first King of Hungary (+1038).

Budapest Cardinal Péter Erdo celebrated Holy Mass to mark the feast in front of his cathedral. The ceremony was followed by a beautiful procession with Stephen’s relics (pictures).

St Stephen's Day is is also called in Hungary Foundation Day and Constitution Day. Festive fireworks in Budapest on that day have a tradition of almost 200 years, only interrupted by revolutions or war times.

The preamble of the Hungarian Constitution reads, “We are proud that our king Saint Stephen built the Hungarian state on solid ground and made our country a part of Christian Europe one thousand year ago.”

Orbán is hated by the oligarchs' media because he defends the religion, the culture and the interests of the simple Hungarians to the detriment of the oligarchs.

Reminds of the photo of NYC skyline, Easter 1956. May Hungary avoid the path of the USA.

We are proud that our king Saint Stephen built the Hungarian state on solid ground and made our country a part of Christian Europe one thousand years ago. We recognise the role of Christianity in preserving nationhood. - Victor Orban
