Hungarian opposition calls for convening parlt EU affairs cttee over Erasmus grants
The opposition Democratic Coalition has called for convening parliament’s European affairs commitee after the European Commission had excluded some Hungarian universities from its Erasmus programmes.
The EC has initiated excluding universities that had participated in the government’s structural reforms, deputy leader Balázs Barkóczi told a press conference on Tuesday. He insisted the reason was that despite the EC’s warning, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán “decided to line his ministers’ pockets with a couple of million forints.”.
The committee would hear János Csák, the minister for culture and innovation, and regional development minister Tibor Navracsics, he said.
