The two young men got into the room where the forum was starting and threw glue and water on the presidium where Soros was sitting. The hooligans were shouting anti-Soros statements as they were being led out of the room.
Commenting on the incident, Soros said he is sure that someone is behind this attack. He could not say who, in his opinion, might have organized it.
The conference continued as scheduled after the incident.
