Schimb de atacuri în Parlament pe proiectul AUR pentru schimbarea numelui stațiunii Bálványos în Bălvăniș. UDMR: „Papagal ai fost, papagal ai rămas”

The proposal by AUR to rename the resort Bálványos to Bălvăniș sparked heated debates in the Romanian Parliament, with accusations of nationalism and insults exchanged. The bill, initially submitted in 2024 and rejected by the Senate, was discussed in the Chamber of Deputies, where AUR's Dan Tănasă argued for the change based on a recommendation from the Romanian Academy. UDMR representatives countered that the name Bálványos reflects the historical identity of the Hungarian minority. The discussions included remarks about the implications of changing local names and the significance of preserving cultural heritage. The final vote on the proposal is scheduled for Wednesday.
