Hungarian PM Orbán To Address 30th Bálványos Summer University
Between July 23 and 28, the 30th Bálványos Summer University and Student Camp will take place in Băile Tușnad (Tusnádfürdő), in central Romania, with the customary keynote address by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

The main themes being explored this year are the future of Europe and Transylvania, Hungarian national unity and the change of political system 30 years ago.

Orbán will give a lecture on Saturday on the big stage together with László Tőkés, head of the Transylvanian Hungarian National Council. Fidesz lawmaker Zsolt Németh, the event’s founder and chairman of the Hungarian parliament’s foreign affairs committee, will moderate.

Also, podium discussions will be held to mark the 100th anniversary of the first world war and the Trianon Peace Treaty.
