Ms Kata Tütt:

I do not think it is my role to tell you how to organise the way you do things. I do not think that any other country should tell you because it is deeply cultural. It is about the way of thinking, history and many other things. What works here does not work in another country and vice versa. I always say, however, that one should keep the following in mind. We see clearly everywhere that democracy is challenged. It is clear that there are so many threats coming, especially from cyberspace and technology. Our agora, the marketplace where people meet, change goods and talk has moved to the cyberspace, is privately owned and is very disruptive. There is a need to have reserves of democracy. Countries need to practice democracy. Local democracies everywhere are very important reserves of democracy, of place and it is from where one can rebuild a democracy after a crisis. So you always have to keep in mind that if you invest in a local democracy, you are investing in preparedness, resilience and democracy.
