It has been 30 years since the revolutionary events of 1989 when people of Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland regained freedom. This victory and further democratic development of the region were later confirmed by Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia entering the North Atlantic Alliance and European Union. Anniversaries of these historical steps are being recalled in Bratislava, Budapest, Prague, Warsaw and other Central European cities and towns by various events, projects and performances.
