A departure from tradition occurred as István Kollai, Deputy State Secretary of the Tisza Government, inaugurated the Hungarian Days in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. This marks the first public appearance of the new government’s Hungarian policy outside of Hungary. Previously, events were opened by members of the Fidesz elite. Kollai is also scheduled to hold a public meeting during the festival. The change in representation signals a possible shift in approach regarding Hungary’s diaspora policies. This event is considered a significant debut for the Tisza Government’s strategies concerning Hungarian communities in neighboring countries. The government’s presence aims to engage directly with the local Hungarian population.
