Oliver Adámek wrote that Budapest's mayor Gergely Karácsony recalled Václav Havel yesterday. According to Adámek, his text demonstrated how Havel transcended borders and how he is spoken of in Hungary. In the text, Karácsony mentioned that Havel would have turned 90 years old and that without him, the democratic transformation of Central Europe would have been unimaginable. His essay from the late 1970s on "the power of the powerless" inspired regime opponents in Hungary and Poland and remains a significant legacy. He added that Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney referenced it this January when calling for cooperation among democratic middle-sized countries. Karácsony described Havel as a defender of human rights, Visegrad cooperation, and European unity. According to him, Havel understood Europe as a lasting intellectual, moral, and political task that each generation must revisit. #VáclavHavel #LidskáPráva #Demokracie (translated)
