A hundred demonstrators participated in the event organized by the Guardians of Carpathian Homeland Movement and the Guard Federation held in front of the Hungarian Foreign Ministry, according to Politics.
Demonstrators shouted anti-Semitic slogans like "Filthy Jews" and "To Auschwitz With You All."
