Joining forces in central Europe is becoming increasingly important in current times, Miklós Soltész, state secretary for church and minority relations, said in Zagreb on Tuesday.
Â
Soltész met Croatian Minister of Culture Nina Obuljen Korzinek and discussed the planned revamp of a church in Zazina. Following an earthquake that hit hard central Croatia in December 2020, the Hungarian government offered to pay for the revamp of a school in Petrinja and the church of Zazina.
Â
Soltész also visited Split where he met representatives of the Democratic Union of Hungarians of Croatia and attended a service in honour of Saint Margaret of Hungary in the Sveti Duje Cathedral.
Â
Soltész praised the efforts of ethnic Hungarians in Croatia to nurture their language and culture and said they can continue to rely on the Hungarian government’s help.
