There was a commemoration service for the victims of Communism yesterday also at the House of Terror, where Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsány placed presumably the first floral tribute already in the morning hours. At the opening of the exhibition displaying the fate of the deportees, the head of the government recalled the era, when even remembering counted as a crime. The crows assembled before the building reacted to the speakers' amplified speeches by whistling. Viktor Orbán, President of Fidesz was among the guests, but it was Vice-President Zoltán Pokorni who spoke in the name of the Opposition.
