Slovakia’s language law is an affront to Europe’s diversity and weakens joint European consciousness; for these reasons every opportunity should be taken to speak against the law, which prohibits the development of Europe’s identity, Istvan Hiller, Hungary’s education minister told an event entitled European Language Days on Friday.
Hiller said that one of the most important aspects of the EU was the promotion of diversity which allowed an outlet for lots of languages to operate side by side. Diversity, he argued, was the determining factor of European consciousness.
