Scandal între UDMR și AUR la dezbaterea proiectului privind limba minorităților: „România nu e Ungaria”

A heated debate occurred in the Romanian Chamber of Deputies regarding a UDMR initiative to maintain language rights for national minorities in local administration, even if their population falls below 20%. The proposal aimed to amend the administrative code to protect existing linguistic rights from demographic fluctuations. UDMR representatives argued for the necessity of the change, while AUR members opposed it, claiming it would unofficially elevate the Hungarian language in certain regions. The discussion included accusations of extremism and corruption, with USR also criticizing AUR's stance. The project was ultimately rejected by a majority vote, with USR abstaining.
