#51/365 Spring is in the air

Statue of Lajos Kossuth stand looking at the town hall. Who is he? Let me extract from wiki :-

He was widely honored during his lifetime, including in the UK and the US as a freedom fighter and bellwether of democracy in Europe.

This statue was in commemoration of the recruiting speech he had give in our town on September 25th, 1848 as the leader of the Hungarian War of Independence.

We found this quote from Brainy Quote :-

The time draws near, when a radical change must take place for the whole world in the management of diplomacy. - Lajos Kossuth
