LMP TO LAUNCH EP CAMPAIGN AT FEB PARTY CONGRESS

 

Opposition LMP is launching its European Parliament election campaign at its party congress on February 23 and 24, party board secretary Máté Kanász-Nagy said. The party celebrates its tenth anniversary this year, he noted. At the congress, the party will approve its EP election programme and finalise its list of candidates, he said. The participants will also discuss possible strategies at the election, he said. Options include running independently, fielding a list of its own but seeking opposition allies for the campaign, participating in a joint all-opposition list, or entering into an alliance with conservative Jobbik, Kanász-Nagy said.
