Budapest was very busy yesterday as many people joined political rallies for the March 15 national holiday. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán spoke at a large Peace March, while opposition leader Péter Magyar led a massive demonstration called the National March. Both leaders shared different ideas for the future of the country. There was also some debate about a large Ukrainian flag that appeared during one of the events, which some people said was meant to cause trouble.
