Janos photos reached Armanians

Peace Dialogue the Armenia based NGO just published my photos on their English and Armenian language website about the Budapest protest against Ramil Safarov extradition. Hope the Armenian society will get the message, that Hungarian civil society has nothing to do with this case. That was a wrong decision of the Hungarian government.

Opposition Protests Constitution In Hungary

Just recognized, the copyright I put into the middle of each photo is dated back to 2011, instead of the appropriate year 2012 :-) All images were taken (January 2, 2012. Budapest, Hungary).

Today I went to photograph the protest at the State Opera. Some of the photos were already published in American Nepszava, the prominent US paper. My photos also hit the front page of Demotix, the London based photo agency. If you are interested to buy my photos, please contact with me or direct Demotix or Penta Press photo agency in Seoul, South Korea.


One of the photo shows a Protester holding a sign with the picture of recent prime minister Viktor Orban, Matyas Rakosi, General Secretary of the Hungaryan Communist Party (1945-July 18,1956), Miklos Horthy,Regent of the Kingdom of Hungary between (1 Mach 1920-15 October 1944).

Other sign (board) calls Victor Orban "Junk" and a Swastika style made with the letters of FIDESZ.

I was fortunate to meet and shake hands of the two journalists who were recently fired over hunger strike (Balazs Nagy Navarro and Aranka Szavuly) from MTVA. The hunger strike is seen as part of a wider protests against the government's media policy, the BBC reported. Balazs and Aranka seen on the 3th photo.
