Societies

Sussex Russian Society

Sussex Hungarian Cultural Association

The European Movement in Sussex Russian Society was joined by Lewes Links, an organisation which was set up in 1992 to forge links and to promote better understanding of central and eastern Europe. As countries in those areas opened to contacts with western Europen movment, Lewes Links aimed to involve Sussex Russian Society in creating and sustaining links with people and organisations in the eastern half of Europe.

In May some of the countries where these contacts had been built were welcomed into the European Union, and another two in January. Other countries still aspire to join, and the concept of a European movment goes well beyond the borders of the EU.
