Chinese Government responds to the “offensive” statements of Budapest’s Mayor
The Chinese Embassy in Hungary has responded to the statements announced on the demonstration held in Budapest against Fudan University last Saturday. According to the spokesman, lies and false information were expressed at the event that, among others, criticised the Chinese political system and the friendly cooperation between China and Hungary.
As we previously reported, the Hungarian campus of the Fudan University would be built in the southern part of Budapest on the eastern bank of the Danube, with four faculties – Arts and Social Studies, Medicine, Public Administration, Natural Sciences and Technology – available for 6000 national and international students. The project is also significant as Fudan Budapest would be the second-biggest Chinese university outside China. However, the project is a divisive issue between the Hungarian government and the opposition parties who organised the massive demonstration last Saturday with the motto “Yes to the Student City, no to the Chinese University Giant”.
The event was attended by thousands of participants, including
Budapest’s Mayor, Gergely Karácsony whose speech was found to be outrageous by the Chinese Embassy in Hungary.
According to the Press Spokesman for the Chinese Embassy, the demonstration held on 5th June against the Fudan project was disrespectful and offensive, containing several false information announced by “some politicians of Budapest”. As the Hungarian news portal Telex reports, the diplomat, who has been living in Hungary for ten years, was shocked by Budapest’s Mayor, Gergely Karácsony’s speech at the event that attacked the Chinese political system and the Chinese-Hungarian friendly cooperation based on mutual respect.
The embassy’s official Facebook page responded as follows: „in broad daylight, it is unseemly to criticise the internal affairs of another country.”
According to the post, even though the Mayor has repeatedly stated that his statements did not target China or the Chinese people, his speech was full of ideological prejudices and hostility that encourages confrontation. Furthermore, the „single-handed” rename of several streets realised a few days ago – “Xinjiang independence”, “Tibet independence”, and “Hong Kong independence” – are also difficult to understand as if they were not clearly aimed at China and the Chinese people.
According to the embassy, this is an interference in China’s internal affairs that sabotages the friendly cooperation between China and Hungary.
Based on the post of the Chinese Embassy in Hungary, they strongly protest, oppose and condemn this, adding that “China upholds the common values of peace, development, fairness, justice, democracy and freedom for all mankind.” The full post can be read here:
At the end of the official announcement shared on Facebook, the Press Spokesman asked Budapest’s Mayor to support the friendship of the Hungarian and Chinese peoples instead and also provided three valuable bits of advice on how to be a good mayor. Accordingly, he suggested Gergely Karácsony „live up to the trust of Budapest citizens; ” to stay objective and rational” instead of misleading people with false information; and keep his “gentlemanly demeanour” when talking about China in the future.
Concerning the Fudan project in the Hungarian capital, spokesman of the Chinese Foreign Ministry told at Monday’s press conference that the Budapest campus is in the interests of all parties and is in line with current trends. Vang Ven-pin also added that the Fudan campus in Budapest is an important platform for exchange relationships. Responding to a demonstration against the campus in Budapest on Saturday, the spokesman expressed hope that “in Hungary, the relevant objective, reasonable and scientific approach can be used instead of politicizing and discussing normal “people-to-people exchanges”, maintaining bilateral friendship and cooperation.

Chinese officialdom – we again witness, the position they take, that is constructed built on and around manipulated in a “dogma” – believing in what they respond or communicate as a factual and objectionable reply.
The empty rhetoric – that is the Chinese way of response, when decisions or challenges or criticism are – in their opinion – directed at them, can – AGAIN – be seen, in the response received from this Embassy Staff Member of the Chinese Government, residing in Budapest, Hungary.
China, to a degree have played into the hands of the growing number of Hungarian citizens – who are opposing and objecting to the establishment building of the Fudan University.
The “taking of the bate” the response they have sent the citizens of Hungary, presents great opportunities to further “sink” and “bury” the dangerous prospects for the future of Hungary, if this Fudan University concept was ever established and built.
The Chinese response plays into the hands of opposition political parties – which should rest with the Budapest Lord Mayor – to continue, as the principal up front spokesperson.
The opportunity presents to expand political territories of objection – outside this “in bed” with China relationship, that is “rampant” – in the present style and direction of the present Hungarian Government.
Factuality – correcting the Chinese in their Response – which in reply should contain putting them the Chinese “on notice” – not to talk with “fork tongues” and don’t mingle and attempt by your empty rhetoric – to “fester” the citizens of Hungary with statements that totally lack substance of FACT.
This is a “Pandora’s box” type opportunity – the Chinese “taking the bate” – a Humongous opportunity presenting it-self, that should enable opposition political party’s, the spokesperson being, the Budapest Mayor, to add on-going – “shame” and “blame” – not just to and on the Chinese – but to the present Hungarian Government.
REMEMBER : Internationally it is known – the Chinese Government – NEVER apologize – there way or no way.
“Offensive Comments”
China – readers please – just not in recent decades of time BUT History, it is fact that you can’t say a word of disagreement against the Chinese.
Historically they respond ;
” You have Offended US “.
Hungary – see the light, and treat them with great Trepidation – for your Future.
Chinese best advised – the major “movers and shakers” of the global world intensifying their watching of China, that gives indications, that they are “preying” on small under financed countries – vulnerable countries, especially those, that have taken and still in times of economic uncertainty – that suggest, a trend that could be likened to an Octopus extending it’s Tentacles.
Europe – is a growing target of this “new” and developing strategy, of China.
Hungary encouraged by it’s clear direction to all that the present Government pursues is “on the list” in the future plans of China.
The new silk road of the 21st century – the meeting of the West with the East not helped by the location of Hungary ideally and strategically located in Europe – as a “terminal” – a distribution center and point for the Chinese, with their conglomeration of products and materials.
China – have big vision plans of growing and vastly expanding in greater quantity throughout Europe.
They are on the prowl – and deepening their “preying” agenda, playing on the vulnerable and Hungary – we are on their list and NEED to put an end to this growing and Government encouraged and supported relationship with China.
Texas closed the Chinese Consulate because of spying and stealing intellectual property.
The Chinese have contributed HUGELY to mankind’s advancement – much more than the so-called ‘European Union’ ever has or indeed will in the future.
Contributors such as “Caritas”, “Norbert” and “Nathaniel” have the same narrow viewpoint as the PATHETIC left-wing, parasitic European Commission / Parliament together with those useless bureaucrats in Brussels, which want nothing to do with China unless it complies with their amazingly distorted view of the world.
Such institutions / individuals can only be described as ‘racist bastards’ who hide behind dictatorial edicts and continual obfuscation.
By the way, fellas, are any of you actually Hungarians who speak the language or do you just enjoy submitting such total nonsense to ‘get your rocks off’ whilst pretending to comment on behalf of REAL Hungarians ?
You obviously have MASSIVE ‘inferiority complexes’ and need urgent psychiatric help (as inpatients).
