Bishop László Tökés, again in the political arena

Cotidianul, one of the prominent daily journals in Romania is picturing the crisis between the Reformed Bishop László Tökés and the Democratic Hungarian Union from Romania. The Hero from Timisoara 1989 December Revolution, Bishop László Tökés felt isolated after.
Asked by the reporter what is his political offer for the euro parliamentary elections Bishop László Tökés underlined that the Democratic Hungarian Union from Romania is indifferent to the real needs of Hungarians in Romania since 1996 when they took part in every Government and accepted to give up the issue of autonomy of the Hungarians in Romania in exchange of participating in governance. Thus, his political offer will be the autonomy of Hungarians in Romania.

The second offer is related to representation in foreign affaires. Bishop László Tökés said that at the beginning it was established in the Democratic Hungarian Union that they will perform a foreign representation of their own having a primary partner Hungary. But after a while the DHU forbid him to continue the policy he begun. Now he will state in his euro parliamentary elections the domination of Markó Bela political barter and reinforce the political interests and the foreign policy of the Hungarians in Romania.

Bishop László Tökés also stated that with the Integration of Romania into EU the Hungarians from Romania lost the last train and all chances for asking their rights.

Asked by the reporter what he would do if he would be the Prime Minister of Hungary Bishop László Tökés said that the borders of the Hungarian nation do not coincide with the borders of the Hungarian state, so he would do the integration policy of the Hungarian Nation not the policy of the Hungarian state.
