"Madam President, this year, the separatist demonstrations organised by the Hungarian extremists in Transylvania to celebrate Hungary’s national day were marked by a worrying display of radicalism, especially due to the support and declarations from senior representatives of the Hungarian State and one of the European Parliament’s vice-presidents.
The Hungarian celebration on 15 March jeopardises from one year to the next the good understanding between Romanians and Hungarians. In this situation, provocative gestures, such as the recent action by a Hungarian extremist who symbolically hanged the hero of the Transylvanian Romanians’ struggle in 1848 for their national rights, only serve to threaten peaceful coexistence.
I strongly condemn these displays of extremism. I call on the Romanian authorities to swap political complicity for legal measures. I also appeal to the European forums to take action to halt the escalation of ethnic hatred and territorial separatism in a region where the wounds of the past have a unique opportunity to be closed with the help of European values."@en1
