Kelemen Hunor, leader of the Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania (UDMR), has refuted claims of external influence regarding his party’s decision on the Veștea government. He specifically addressed speculation about discussions with the Hungarian Prime Minister, Peter Magyar, and leaders from the European People’s Party (PPE). Hunor stated he has not spoken with Magyar since April 23rd, dismissing suggestions of coordinated action. This statement comes after scrutiny surrounding UDMR’s position on supporting the new government. The denial aims to counter narratives suggesting foreign interference in Romanian political processes. Hunor communicated this information via a Facebook post, directly addressing the circulating allegations. The UDMR’s vote is crucial for the stability of the new governing coalition.
