DK Wants To Name Square In Budapest After Göncz
Democratic Coalition councillor Erzsébet Gy. Németh is suggesting that Nyugati tér be renamed in honour of former president Árpád Göncz, who died on October 6. The city council will vote on her proposal next week. Németh argues that Göncz should be honoured for his “unswerving political moral standing”. Göncz’s funeral is scheduled for November 6.
