President Sulyok: ‘Nothing can come before child protection’

President Tamás Sulyok of Hungary spoke at a conference on child protection held by the Csongrád-Csanád County Government Office in Szeged, Hungary on Thursday, 24 April.

‘No one and nothing can come before the protection of children, who are a blessing for the nation, the country, the family, and for all created human beings,’ the President told the audience. The Hungarians are a family-oriented nation, and the most precious treasures of the family are the children, he continued, adding that children ‘are the guarantees of the survival of the Hungarian nation, they will follow in our footsteps, they will continue our work, and hopefully they will correct our mistakes’.

President Sulyok stressed that we can set no greater goal than to provide all children with a protective and inspiring environment that will give them a happy early life experience and help them become happy and well-adjusted adults. He went on to say that protecting children goes beyond national interests, and caring for children and protecting them from harm is the most basic human concern.

‘We need some words of encouragement, and we need strategies and methods developed by excellent professionals. But words, strategies, and methods are worth nothing if there are no good examples to follow,’ the President said.

Tamás Sulyok also called the work of the dedicated professionals, helpers, and employees of child protection a missing and indispensable element.
