Hungarian Minority in Romania: Stronger Position Needed Concerning Nationalist-Extremist Manifestati
Regarding the vote in the Chamber of Deputies concerning the search of the houses of the President of the Chamber, Adrian Nastase, the DAHR had furthered a secret vote. “We must not ignore certain principles just for the sake of stating momentary political interests. This would mean ignoring fundamental principles of democracy. Having an open vote in cases concerned with persons, might herald, in a further step to having open votes in parliamentary and local elections. The DAHR is not willing to digress, not for anyone, from the basic principles of democracy”, Béla Markó said.
Analyzing the events of the last couple of weeks, Béla Markó said that we are witnessing a permanent circus: politicians are busy with searches of houses, secret services, while urgent solutions are needed for problems of the pensioners, for supporting agriculture, for problems of the youth and for problems in the protection of the environment.” It seems like the a game of ‘cops ‘n’ robbers’ is played in Parliament, instead of finding solutions for the aforementioned problems.”, Béla Markó said. He announced that in the coming period the DAHR will address these domains with particular interest. Also, the DAHR suggested analyzing the Government Programme, together with its partners.
