'ON A BETTER TRACK' TO BE MOTTO OF 33RD BĂILE TUȘNAD SUMMER UNIVERSITY

 

„On a Better Track” will be the motto of the 33rd Bálványos Summer University in Băile Tușnad (Tusnádfürdő), central Romania, to be held on July 23-28, organisers told a press conference in Miercurea Ciuc (Csíkszereda) on Thursday. Krisztina Sándor, acting head of the Hungarian National Council of Transylvania who is in charge of the event’s political programme, said this year’s motto worked in both a physical and political sense, and refers to the improved situation of Hungarians in the Carpathian Basin. This year’s panel discussions will be focused on current political trends, the issue of war and peace, the economy and green topics like climate change, energy efficiency and the green transition, Sándor said. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Semjén will again be attending the event, along with several ministers and state secretaries.
