21.08.2008 - Hungary apologises for occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1968

Hiller said the suppression of the Prague Spring communist-led reform movement in August 1968 was a shame.
He said it is Hungary's moral duty to apologise for what happened then.
Hiller said Hungary's share of responsibility is no smaller that the Hungarian units entered Czechoslovakia under the pressure of the Soviet Union.
"It as an aggression, an attack on free thinking and on free decision-making," Hiller said.
He also said Prague Spring was no unimportant episode of history.
Hiller said Prague Spring together with the uprising in Hungary in 1956 that the Soviet Union suppressed in a bloody action, prepared ground for the fall of communist regimes in Central Europe in 1989.
