"National Security Advisor Dr Condoleeza Rice expressed concern during a conference call that Mr Kocsis or Mr Budahazy could be using the CNN and other international news agencies to organize a powerful anti-globalization force in Central Eastern Europe.

Dr. Rice made no specific request of news organizations, other than that we consider the possible existence of such messages in deciding whether and how to report the statements of the Hungarian Right and their leaders, CNN local director Harry C. McNamara announced.

The so-called Awakening Day demonstration on the the Fourth of July could undermine the effort of the United States to implement his policy in the CEE region, Condoleeza Rice added. The National Security Advisor underlined the responsibility of the Press while reporting the events in Hungary.

The emergence of the "Jobbik" Party is widely recognised as the most important development in the European political scene, and will be discussed during the upcoming talk between President George W. Bush and Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Medgyessy.

CNN intends to have live coverage on the Awakening Day demonstration from Budapest, Hungary. "
