Slovak Revival Movement

The red flag with large white double cross is the flag of Slovak Revival Movement (Slovenské Hnutie Obrody), a far-right political movement in Slovakia which was founded in 2004 [1]. The symbolism, as explained by Robert Švec, the movement president, is as follows [2]:

"What does our symbolism express? Flag of the Slovak Revival Movement: The red color symbolizes the blood of our ancestors who fought for our national and state freedom. The white color symbolizes the purity of our thoughts, strong social feelings and hope. And the double cross, the double cross is a symbol of Slovaks and Slavs. He has been associated with our nation and community for over 1,000 years."

At the movement website, the page dedicated to the movement symbols - no longer online - similarly discussed the cross [3]:

"Our symbolism is based on the history of Slovaks and Slavs. The white double cross is a symbol not only of Slovaks, but also of the entire Slavic community. It symbolizes the deep spiritual and cultural roots of the Slavs, which are built on faith. The white double cross is also a sign that appeals to all Slavs, regardless of religion or nationality. It is a symbol that expresses Slavic belonging."

The flag ratio is 2:3 or very close. The cross is set off-center, the points of its bottom right-hand arm usually reaching the vertical midline, but it may be set closer to the hoist as well. The size and shape of the cross may vary somewhat, as well as the shade of red color. [4 - 11]Sources:
