On October 23 1956 the #HungarianRevolution ignited

It lasted 15 days

It was crushed by #Soviet Tanks

On the anniversary Thursday, there were protests against #Orban

Peter Lakits, holding a sign reading "Russians Go Home":

“One thing we have learned from #history is that we have learned nothing from history. Sometimes the tanks that crushed #freedom in #Budapest are the very same ones that are now crushing freedom in #Ukraine"
