(MTI) - In light of excellent bilateral relations and the strategic partnership that exist between the two countries, the ministry said the current situation was "an isolated exception." It is regrettable that "under pressure from the threat of political protests" Alfoldi withdrew an agreement with the Romanian Cultural Institute for renting out the building for a reception, the statement said.
The national day of December 1 marks the Alba Iulia national assembly, which declared the unification of Transylvania (until then a Hungarian territory) with the Kingdom of Romania in 1918.
