Neo-Nazis gather in Budapest for the so-called "Day of Honor"

Neo-Nazis are starting to gather in Budapest today in order to commemorate the so-called “Day of Honor”. The annual gathering is held in Hungary every 12 February to commemorate the moment in 1945 when German and Hungarian soldiers broke through the blockade at Budinsky Castle during the Second World War.

According to Hungarian secret service sources, participation in the march is not expected to be as great this year as it has been in years past. Roughly 2 000 neo-Nazis from all over Europe met in Budapest in 2009 and called for European countries to be defended against foreign influences.
