What do you think went wrong inside story on al jazeera . Ah, all. The you know, i thought that my journalistic camera, 44 years ago in 1985, i was appointed the most school bureau, chief of hungary and television. Those were the board by 12 years nobody at that time wanted to go to the soviet union. And when i came back home, communism was over in hungary. It was a completely new and strange world. All troops must be withdrawn for important that everybody in hungary had Great Expectations about democracy and about changing to capitalism. And at that time, hungary was in the forefront of the changes the Hungarian Society created legislation. Model type part is so a new parliament elected by the people and old, all the institutions of democracy were billed when the bon government came to power. In my view it margaret a sharp change. I would say it is much closer to dictatorship, where the exclusive only ideology is to retain power at whatever cost the you get a good deal. Yeah. Any type of when it gets to lindsey and he sent horner or not, or new load. I spell out your buffet as the social guide is asha, was an m ha ha. Made the donato. We did as a frequency and got as if they get kind of i dont thing that victor or band could be voted out of power. No prices is high enough. Just he wants to be in power. That is his only goal in life. This is why i think hes so dangerous for getting democracy. The Prime Minister came to power for the 1st time, very young still in his thirtys, in 1998. When he lost the elections. I think he made the while to himself that he will never let go with the power to keep them keep us simple. Guinea, mindy, of ethnic i or by the door. And the lecture thing was defeated in 2002. That the reason why he could lose the election because he did a joke if by the media like 2010 when finished came to power with a 2 thirds majority. It meant that politically, he can do anything he wants because he had a full even constitutional, strong position in parliament. My daughter michael with if you wanted, he could have introduced a kingdom in hunger because of the cross. Did you show majors you can override the constitution . You can change the, the cardinals, you can do whatever you want. They changed it within 24 hours. So when he came to power in 2010, i think he had Strategic Plan off not letting go for this power anymore. So if you want to know more about human rights respect or its not for, for us, its not 3 years less free. First, before he occupied the institutional system prosecutors office, therefore there can be no high level investigation started in government related corruption. And of course he needed to conquer the media because he understood that the media is the 4th key element of any democracy or power. The media with central bank and many other bodies. So the so called independent institutions of preferable laws, their independence has it really became a typical populace politician. I think the only thing that matters is himself retaining power and making himself ready to reach Abraham Lincoln once said mm, if you want to test a mans character, give him power. Ah, its important to recognize that democracy without constraint can be extremely dangerous. In some places what weve seen is a decay in those liberal rights. Im without actually seeing an elimination of free and fair election. Youre the, if you could get a planet, i dont see them a little bit. Im excited dark. But in to go more systematic runway during most of modern history, up through the mid to late 20th century. The main way in which democracies died was through some kind of violent break. With the past, you know the military out on the street with the tags and the guns over throwing democratically elected governments. These days, democracy doesnt die. Suddenly, it dies by a 1000 cuts step by step and die silently and incrementally as elected leaders like victor or bon and hungry. Rather than autocrats violently over throwing democratic regimes. They come to power through the ballot box and rather than ending free and fair elections, they gradually undermine the norms and institutions of democracy from with. And so what am i supposed to do with them with this is that sometimes citizens dont know exactly whats going on until you wake up one day and youre free press is gone. You wake up one day, the system looks the same, but deep down the system has been turned inside out and transformed from an electoral democracy into a competitive authoritarian with shame. I think in the also is there an playbook, the 1st thing. What you have to do if there are still elections, is to change the information environment. 10 years ago when victor or bon came to the polar tv allies that he has to control the media. And they started to buy Media Outlets one by one. They have different tactics. If they can buy one media, they are buying. If they intimidate the other one, they are intimidating. And if they close one media, david, close it. So there is a pressure on us. But we have to be very careful, of course, and we have to be brave enough to support the pressure ah, i was working for the largest daily newspaper at the time called hungarian nation on them. And 2 days after the election stay announced that the largest newspaper at the time will be closed. So we decided to estimate the weekly magazine called hungary voice he had no money told me starting from scratch. Ready unfortunately in hungary its nobody brave enough to print out a newspaper. So i had to find. Ready another option since the beginnings we are printing or newspapers in slow achia, some of the retail chains are not brave enough to sell us. Even the readers are not brave enough to be subscriber. Even the Market Companies de monte national swans doesnt want to, to give advertising to us because they are afraid to be punished. Everybody has his deal with the government. And they doesnt want to take a risk thats all last chance to remain journalist. If theyre hungry and voice will be closed, we have to leave the journalism and we have to find a new way of surviving. So we could be stopped at any time. By 2018, they created a huge government controlled media. Conglomerate off no less than 470. 00 different Media Outlets. This foundation controls about 90 percent of the media. 90 percent of the audience is a huge media machinery that allows the government to push its messages in a highly concentrated form. More changing the attitude through these information and theyre active and i think change the media landscape and change the electoral system. So that makes it easier for you to read in hungary, the official politics of the government, i think is quest versus syria. And its, its really remarkable that leading government officials, including the Prime Minister himself, are spreading the dispatcher, ask once, press the theories. And if you are opening your mouth and criticizing the government, then you can easily find yourself in the very brutal and this honest this information can be they tried to silence glue. Glad youre glad you wouldnt fit into this propaganda balloon. Imagine that you spend a lot of time and money to build up a huge air balloon of propaganda and there is a little hole in it. You have to close it. You have to close. Glad you. Because glad you is the little hole. Well, the truth comes out if you close your eyes and, and put aside your moral obligations or professional principles, you can continue working for, for the government media ad. But you will know that you are lying every day. Oh, its also a term popu is under can be better described as the tribal politics because its something an shop here in hungary war bomb is read, says the leader of his tribe. There is nothing in between either your b, the us or a gauss spouse. Busy i think this is how democracies start to die. That ran the year. Just dont dare to open your mouth. I asked to demo said that the Government Action a to be among so many people who what is i think remarkably unique in hungary case is a door bound, could do it beads, almost no application of wireless handling. This was just one of the towns where protest is reported to have been shot at by the Security Services in mandalay, sometimes democracy fails. And i think this is an example now that just happened in burma because you have some power for actor external to the political system that doesnt want to allow democracy, that feels threatened by democracy. And i think thats whats happened recently with the military coup and me and my young gun shows Police Standing over the you have a narrow cabal of rulers, and they control armed force. They have a monopoly of force. Now they can suppress popular uprisings for change. Ah, [000 00 00;00] ah, i was planning the midnight one minute cool with that commenter in shut off them at all, which is the military force, austria. Mm hm. Yeah. I was shocked for whole day even we predicted them at all. Well take over the control sooner or later as i am an executive member of revolutionary democratic for me and my comrade stood at our conversation about how can we respond to the action. So i will move that does not support it or rely on any Political Parties or organizations. We walk on any parties who agreeing with our principles, such as abolishing the military region, abolishing 2008 constitution, which is the main pillar of military aging. And achieving for democracy and free all political prisoners. I dont want to live and see our generation live under the dictatorship. I a i had with them. I mean, i was born and grew up in them at all military combat. As my father was a soldier who my father retired from military since 1999, one on return discrimination policy over race and religion announced and implemented within the middle. According to the policy, the military officers will not be promoted if he or she is not barleys and that coal i only k virus c by means if you are being kitchen, korean chin, or other at the next and Christian Muslim or other religious, your virus infect, that person and a long in the society, me a great, a busy, whether the government is minorities equal to the major. 30 people might have a question. Also, susie and our fellows protecting the brutality, soft amador, even as the international state. And why the military wants to cool . It is clear, i dont expect that to, as i say, a row through elect to real process. But you see be filled in both 20152020 election. And of course, they are not happy with it. There are places in the world where the military is so powerful. It just doesnt seem to be willing to allow a Democratic Political system. The democracy stems from the innate desire of human beings for dignity, for respect, that comes with freedom and you can have freedom without democracy. In the absence of that, what is to protect you from a knock on the door in the middle of the night from the secret police, or just the police saying youve violated this law or that. And youre being taken away and then who will defend you. And who will protect you when everybody is living under the same fear of a a i really hated because the really to read it, they hope at the 50 of to put it but not a blog. Like the military guys did read it by jose delegated my wife and my brother. Since then, like we locate him back in different places. A, a with hi hedge, felicia or both cooper due to your family. So i just called because i knew that they would look for me but i keep getting calls in a different activity afoot like a failure to be screwed for with my motorcycle group. You dont know what to do and we dont know. Were going to have, if we do have a little bit with a c. Mm hm. That im doing really deal with with the the the the, the ah, independent minded people are dangerous for any dictator. This is why they try to eradicate them both in stylings, russia, or soviet union in hitlers nazi germany. The same was under cut, duffy in libya. The same happened in romania and nikolai chesko and its happening now in neon mark. I havent seen anything better than democracy. If you turn the question around, you see what the lack of democracy causes in human history, mass killings, oppression, poverty. So where are we heading . Ah, what we are leaving behind for our children. This is or duty to ring the bell all the day that come on guys, we are heading into the wrong direction. Assassination is dissident destabilizing the democratic process. You will, you will lose it. It will be a loss for holding a documentary explorer. How autocratic leaders undermine democracy to consolidate their power through the eyes of those who dare to stand and defy it. Our country deserves so much better than being ruled by a cleft aquatic dictatorship, opposing autocracy. Democracy may be on al jazeera. Ah long with.
