Novak points to ‘inseverable’ ties between motherland, Hungarians outside of borders
President Katalin Novak said the ties between the motherland and Hungarians living outside of the country's borders are "inseverable", speaking at the unveiling of a statue of Gabor Bethlen, the prince of Transylvania in its golden age, in Alba Iulia (Gyulafehervar) on Saturday.
“We will never sever the umbilical cord between the motherland and the Hungarians torn away, and we will never let it be severed,” Novak said.
“Gabor Bethlen and the golden age of Transylvania will not be let go, so too we will not let go of each other,” she added.
Novak said that Hungarians living in Transylvania can play a role in Romania’s advancement if they preserve their identity.
