The two prime ministers will soon hold talks in Bucharest, according to Maszol news' report. Last year a similar meeting to this one took place, when Viktor Orban and Marcel Ciolacu had lunch together in the Romanian capital the day before the Hungarian prime minister's visit to Tusvanyos.
Then the informal meeting was also attended by Hunor Kelemen, president of Democratic Alliance of Hungarians in Romania (RMDSZ/UDMR) and the country's Transport Minister Sorin Grindeanu. This year's meeting is of particular significance given that Hungary currently holds the rotating presidency of the European Union.
The news portal writes, that the annual free summer university in Baile Tusnad will again this year center on political and public affairs-themed presentations, with several politicians from Hungary and Romania taking part in the four-day event, including Prime Minister Viktor Orban, Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Semjen along with several other members of the government, as well as Romania's RMDSZ/UDMR party President Hunor Kelemen, and a number of politicians of the ethnic Hungarian minority alliance.
