[ said]: The Treaty of Trianon [signed June 4, 1920] is still important for us. It’s necessary for us to ensure that it will still be valid ... so that we don’t lose our Slovakia,

TheSlovakSpectator 07-JUN-10

[ said]: This is our response to the provocations by Hungarian politicians from the Fidesz party, (Premier) Mr. (Viktor) Orban and the Neo-Nazi Jobbik party. Slovakia is now showing the entire nation, the whole of Europe and Hungarians from beyond the Danube River in particular that this is our land, the Slovak land, and we'll never let it to be taken away from us,

tasr 04-JUN-10

[ explained]: To show the Hungarian nation where the Trianon border is. By being present there, we want to show that Komárno is a Slovak town,

TheSlovakSpectator 03-JUN-10

[ explained]: To show the Hungarian nation where the Trianon border is. By being present there, we want to show that Komarno is a Slovak town,

[ said]: The Slovak National Party could well handle this minority in a quick way. Maybe it's going to be a few thousand people, and maybe they'll be joined by a few hundred confused Gypsies. Those are the ones with no proper relation to their homeland. If such a small group forms, and acts against Slovakia's interests, they'll be expelled and go to where they are citizens - to Hungary,

tasr 26-MAY-10

[ said]: Anyone who doesn't want to live in Slovakia in friendly relations with the majority nation should go over the Danube River,

tasr 26-MAY-10

[ said]: Even if everybody trivialises it, the victory of (Hungarian party) Fidesz and the election result of (far-right party) Jobbik - 17 percent - do not bring anything good for Slovakia. At the first session of Hungarian Parliament, dual citizenship for Hungarians will probably be passed, which will have a great impact on Slovakia and on Central Europe,

tasr 07-MAY-10

[ said]: I would advise anybody who wants to question our statements to try to live in a Gypsy ghetto for two weeks. I don't want to lump them all together, a lot of Gypsies work and do not parasite on society. However, the vast majority does not (want to work),

tasr 07-MAY-10

[ said]: That would be the beginning of the end of Slovak sovereignty. The next Slovak Government can't exist without SNS if we want to preserve our sovereignty,

tasr 07-MAY-10

[-also commented]: We would do everything possible to modernise the Slovak army and to increase it's combat readiness.

tasr 07-MAY-10

[-said]: You always need to choose the lesser of two evils,

TheSlovakSpectator 04-MAY-10

[-said]: Mikloško, you [are the] son of a devil, ugly and disgusting, but we will forgive you, because we see you as a mentally retarded person,

TheSlovakSpectator 04-MAY-10

[ said]: The Hungarians continue to dream about (revisiting) Trianon and some Greater Hungary including Slovakia,

tasr 02-MAY-10

[ said]: Most-Hid may claim that it's building bridges, but it's doing so only to make way for (Hungarian) tanks,

tasr 02-MAY-10

[ said]: How can anybody have good relations with Slovakia, when they speak that they don't know any Slovak-Hungarian border but only the Hungarian-Polish border? Who can believe such a person claiming that they want to have friendly relations with Slovakia? Only an idiot,

tasr 02-MAY-10

[ said]: This is a form of a protest against the Slovak Parliament not passing our proposal on the Trianon peace treaty. I think that it's the duty of the Slovak Parliament to take up a stance on this, because FIDESZ has now gained a constitutional majority in the Hungarian Parliament, where the future prime minister Mr. (Viktor) Orban, at least, wants to alter Trianon,

tasr 27-APR-10

[ said]: I guess I'd give one to both of them in such a case ... I'd be so happy to see these two extremists out of Parliament,

tasr 25-APR-10

[ said]: We consider humanity and democracy towards murderers, often they're pedophiles who murder the kids ... and we don't take victims into account. And victims in this case aren't only the actual victims of the murders but also their families, with parents often ending up in a mental hospital. Meanwhile, the murderers don't fear at all, they're used to prison, as they live in clover there,

tasr 19-APR-10

[ said]: It wasn't SNS that begun the debate (on the topic) in the EU; the discussion began in the Italian and Portuguese parliaments, and I think that in the French and Belgian Parliament as well,

tasr 19-APR-10

[said:]: The Slovak National Party has been around for 139 years, while some kind of SMK has for a few years [SMK was formed in 1997 - ed. note]. It didn't come into being to the benefit of Slovak statehood, but in order to do away it.

tasr 13-APR-10

[ said]: Why shouldn't the payment of social benefits be conditioned by 30 hours of public work? They could begin by tidying up the mess (in which they live). Let them humanise their own environment,

TheSlovakSpectator 13-APR-10

[ said]: Why shouldn't the payment of social benefits be conditioned by 30 hours of public work? They could begin by tiding up the mess (in which they live). Let them humanise their own environment. They aren't even moving at the moment,

tasr 08-APR-10

[ said]: The law needs to be strictly enforced also when it comes to this ethnic group. And I don't want to point only to members of this group but also to anti-social elements as such,

tasr 08-APR-10

[ said]: Police should be sent there, and not to boss the entire nation about measuring speeds (on the roads) during Easter,

tasr 08-APR-10

[-said]: There are dozens, hundreds of members of Hungarian Intelligence in southern Slovakia, as if no-one has noticed,

TheSlovakSpectator 30-MAR-10

[-said]: The second most popular [Hungarian political] party Jobbik presents itself in a way that they plan to use military power to change the borders in neighbouring countries,

TheSlovakSpectator 30-MAR-10

[ said]: The second most popular (Hungarian political) party Jobbik presents itself in a way that they plan to use military power to change the borders in countries around,

[ asked]: ARE WE some camel drivers or what?

TheSlovakSpectator 19-MAR-10

[-tells]: The children's relationship to their nation, to their homeland is not on a decent level,

time 18-MAR-10

[ said]: He attacked the sovereignty of neighbouring states by this. Such statements are unacceptable and insulting. They're kicking us in the head and we're still crawling,

tasr 18-MAR-10

[ said]: SNS is seriously concerned that a economically decimated Hungary whipped up with revanchism is heading towards a planned conflict with neighbouring states, with not even a military conflict ruled out, mainly after the accession of (Fidesz chairman) Viktor Orban's government,

tasr 14-MAR-10

[ stated]: We will forgive you, because we see you as a mentally retarded person,

TheSlovakSpectator 12-MAR-10

[ said]: I'm convinced that we'll succeed at least to that extent as four years ago (SNS scored 11.73 percent - ed. note),

tasr 11-MAR-10

[ said]: These are the candidates who should pull up the entire list, which contains 150 names,

tasr 11-MAR-10

[-said]: The Ministry of Economy is now not managing anything,

TheSlovakSpectator 25-JAN-10

[ said]: These persons are suspected of committing extremely serious criminal activities and they're about to be mingled into our society,

tasr 19-JAN-10

[ said]: The Economy Ministry actually doesn't manage anything at present. The ministry itself seems rather deaf and dumb to us,

tasr 14-JAN-10

[ said]: We're intensively working on a new territory-legal zoning of Slovakia. Slovakia could save considerable financial means. This would also be in line with EU recommendations,

tasr 14-JAN-10

[-said]: I believe that the vast majority of the Slovak public has comprehended what's going on there.

TheSlovakSpectator 17-DEC-09

[ stated]: I think we have openly and clearly supported Tibor Mikus in Trnava and Juraj Blanar in Zilina region. Those two clearly won in their regions in the second round and in the end it's our success as well,

tasr 15-NOV-09

[ stated]: In any event, nobody can be content unless they govern on their own. So from this perspective, there are some reserves, but we are already clearly focusing on the 2010 parliamentary elections,

tasr 15-NOV-09

[-said]: I think that this is definitely revenge, because SNS has for the third time filed a complaint against SMK with the Prosecutor-General's Office for its anti-state and anti-Slovak activities. And, of course, also because we submitted a proposal to the Parliamentary mandate and immunity committee to resolve the issue of SMK MPs attending Hungary's Forum of the Carpathian Basin,

TheSlovakSpectator 13-NOV-09

[ said]: SMK merely proving what SNS has been pointing to for quite a while - that SMK and Fidesz are political parties that are very closely linked to each other, have the same political interests in both Hungary and Slovakia, with their common feature being autonomy of southern Slovakia,

TheSlovakSpectator 13-OCT-09

[ said]: It's absolutely outrageous that, thanks to the efforts made by ethnic-Hungarian SMK party, representatives of other countries should show off here and interfere in Slovakia's internal relations,

TheSlovakSpectator 13-OCT-09

[ said]: I can make further comments on the matter of the rental of the jet only after I get a written request from the committee. I consider today's decision of the conflict of interest committee as an artificial media blow-up concerning an absolutely irrelevant matter,

TheSlovakSpectator 09-OCT-09

[-said]: Those media are now the first to beat around and criticise. Well, let them return the money – this should be a little problematic, I guess,

TheSlovakSpectator 09-OCT-09

[-told]: The Croatia flight, questioned by media, was explained by relevant documents - an invoice and a confirmation of payment and the explanation of the jet loan I backed with legal analyses,

TheSlovakSpectator 09-OCT-09

[-asserted]: he added. By participating in the Forum of Ethnic Hungarian MPs of the Carpathian Basin, they violate the (Slovak) constitution, and shape Hungarian politics,

[-explained]: The money will not come in from the tender. But from the whole package from EU for this part, everything will come to Slovakia; to the last cent. We will receive the euros that were meant to come, in full amount. They will just not be used for the things designated,

TheSlovakSpectator 09-OCT-09

[-argued]: As the MKP’s MPs question the Trianon peace treaty and the Benes decrees, they also doubt Slovakia’s sovereignty and territo-rial integrity,

budapestsun 09-OCT-09

[ said]: have forced SNS to turn to the Slovak nation so that it can also in this way express its support for this very important act

TheSlovakSpectator 21-SEP-09

[-told]: This clearly shows - and I want to stress it - that there is no difference between them (the two parties). One is black-and-white and the other is white-and-black,
