Bernadett Petri, Ministerial Commissioner in Hungary, criticized the report as “an openly anti-Christian piece of work,” saying it unfairly portrays conservative Christianity and churches as a threat to radical gender and LGBTQ+ movements.
/**/As reported by Christian Today, the EPF document—funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and George Soros—warns of a rise in religious “anti-feminist” groups. In response, Petri argued that “churches and Christian values in Europe… were the bedrock of society, providing education, social services and family support over the centuries.”
Petri, who was named in the report as part of an “extremist” network, said she felt a sense of honor: “When I saw my name in this document, I was actually proud to be included. It means that I am doing something right.” She also denounced the effort to label Christian individuals and organizations as dangerous, calling it “very dictatorial.”

The report also targeted ADF International, a global Christian legal advocacy group. Paul Coleman, the group’s director, said, “EPF targets ADF International because our legal advocacy is effective in defending life, parental rights, free expression, and other fundamental freedoms across the globe.” He added, “The more they try to silence us… the clearer it becomes that our work is making a difference in Europe and beyond.”
