Slovakia

Our movement has often stood up for the LGBTI community, e.g. we initiated a significant campaign against the so-called referendum for the traditional family (since it is capitalism that destroys families and not the LGBTI community), where we used graphics, actions, and articles to attack the significant homophobia that appeared in the Slovak Republic. Our movement clearly declared that it would support registered partnerships. Support for the rights of the LGBTI community is of course based on our Marxist positions.

As the first openly trans* candidate I have the relevant lived experience needed for taking informed decisions. On top of that I want to keep in touch with local queer-adjacent organisations and consult with them at every step to guarantee a more diverse perspective.

I will support inclusive policies and programs aiming at fighting discrimination. I believe in creating space for pursuit of happiness for everyone and our laws and rules should reflect that.

As always, following the best possible direction for equal rights for everyone.

As a minority Hungarian from Slovakia, I feel obliged to protect other minorities. Especially with minority politicians who see sexual minorities as a political target. Together, with a common purpose, we can fight for our rights and assert them together.

If elected, I commit to work towards equality and equity for all, actively engaging with and supporting disadvantaged and vulnerable communities, including LGBTI. This is also in line with the pledge of my political party Volt which puts inclusivity at its core.

Being a voice of a new culture of inclusive leadership in the political arena

I’m signing this pledge in memory of Matúš and Juraj, who were murdered in Bratislava, my hometown, because they belonged to the LGBTIQ+ community. I’m signing this pledge because this community, this minority, should be able to live without fear for their security and lives, because all people in Europe should be able to love and live in peace, happiness and security.
