The chairman of the People's Movement Party (PMP) , Cristian Diaconescu, requested the Foreign Ministry to issue the right diplomatic answer to the statements made by the Hungarian president Janos Ader, in Kiev, when Crimea Platform was launched, that he understood the Ukrainian drama in a context similar to the one experienced by Hungary, following the Trianon Treaty. “President Janos Ader declared in Kiev, when Crimea Platform was launched, that he understood the Ukrainian drama, in a context similar to the one experienced by Ukraine, after the Trianon Treaty. A direct manifestation of revisionist policy, permanently expressed lately, inadequate in the western world,” said Cristian Diaconescu on Tuesday, on the Facebook page of PMP. PMP considers that Romania must react to such statements and reject these unhappy comparisons, he added. “It is more than obvious, that Hungary takes advantage of every international event to reopen the Trianon subject, although Europe hs now another political construction, the European Union, without empires, without the 'people's prison' and oppressing other nations. Considering the high institutional level and the international frame where these statements were made, PMP considers that Hungary must present explanations at the right diplomatic level”, Diaconescu pointed out. Janos Ader, the president of Hungary, compared on Monday, the annexation of Crimea by Russia to the Trianon Treaty, signed at the end of WW I, by which Transylvania returned to Romania. “After WW I, two thirds of our territory and population were taken from us. The Hungarians did not forget, a century later,that they became a minority, schools were taken away from them and everything possible was made to do away with education in their mother tongue,” Janos Ader accused in Kiev, at the inauguration summit of Crimea International Platform, in which premier Florin Citu participated.
