Representatives of Hungarian political parties and organizations in Transylvania are asking Romania – which now holds the Presidency of the Council of the European Union – to establish a Hungarian medical and pharmacy university.
A meeting of the so-called Round Table of Hungarian Autonomy in Transylvania was held in Timisoara on Friday, chaired by Katalin Szili, the proxy of the Hungarian Prime Minister for Mediation. According to the press release sent to the Hungarian MTI press agency, the participants agreed that it is important that Romania, while holding the presidency of the Council of the European Union, adopts some decisive laws that will make a significant contribution to the development of the Hungarian community. As an example, the establishment of a Hungarian university of medicine and pharmacy in Transylvania.
The round table participants discussed topical political events and future European Parliament elections, and then set the schedule for the current year’s meetings. It has been decided to address the following during meetings the proposals of the participants on the Law on Minorities, a law that has stagnated for more than a decade in the Romanian Parliament, to come to a common ground on the subject.
The communiqué was signed by the Executive Vice President of UDMR, István Székely, the executive president of the Hungarian National Council of Transylvania (CNMT), Krisztina Sándor, the Transylvanian People’s Party (PPMT) executive president, Tibor T. Toró and Szili Katalin, the proxy of the Prime Minister of Hungary.
