AHF engaged the discussion immediately and called for greater unity within the American Hungarian Community. [read more]

AHF's Bryan Dawson-Szilagyi commented, "We must end petty divisions come together to have a stronger voice. Common ground and a focus on issues that unite rather than divide is key. We cannot criticize Hungary and its government and express concern for the survival of Hungarian culture in the Carpathian Basin without looking at ourselves first. We have opened no schools in United States, we haven't reached out to the next generation, and we find it difficult to come together under an umbrella organization."

Dawson-Szilagyi also republished his "The Iceman Cometh: The New Hungarian Ice Age" to stimulate discussion and promote unity within the Hungarian American community. AHF 1st Vice President, Frank Koszorus, Jr., wrote an opinion on steps the community must take to help make its voice heard, including "setting a political agenda and striving for greater cooperation and genuine coordination and a willingness by the leaders to share information, consult with each other and involve more than a small inner circle of decision makers of any one organization."
