Mayor to withdraw Budapest’s approval to host 2023 World Athletics Championships
Budapest Mayor Gergely Karácsony said on Thursday that he would propose to the general assembly to withdraw its approval for the city to host the 2023 World Athletics Championships.
Karácsony told a press conference at the planned site for a student city in southern Budapest that by passing a law on China’s Fudan University, the government had violated a 2019 agreement which included, among other things, Budapest’s approval for the world athletics championships.
The government considers setting up Fudan University in Budapest more important than building a student city providing affordable housing for students from outside the city, Karácsony said.
“It is time that this infamy is not left without a response,” he added.
Karácsony said he would propose to the general assembly at next week’s meeting to withdraw Budapest’s approval which is necessary for hosting the 2023 World Athletics Championships.

The Everly Brothers – remember there chain of hits back in the 60’s and 70’s ?
Don Everly, the eldest of the Brothers passed on this past week.
The Brothers – together now in a better place – possible getting a “gig” singing with the mass choir of angles up there in the celestial heavens ///
One of there BIG hits – title – All I have to do is Dream.
Couldn’t help but think – these (2) two projects “thrown” in our citizen faces by the present Government of the Day / Fidesz Party – shrouded in Secrecy & MYSTERY – Frabricated and lacking – Candour – that maybe – the title of The Everly Brothers song – FITS – with mass numbers others than the (2) two refered in this article – of the projects “tabled” by the present Government – for the better Quality of Life and Tourist Attraction to our Country.
Dr. Martin Luther-King – had a Dream – which still – CHALLENGES – the 331 million plus Americans – BIG Time.
Nothing wrong with DREAMING – but the Factuality of them coming to Fruitition happening – there in lies the mystical unanswered question.
tHE MAN IS A LEFTIST @RSEHOLE.
Nathanial, Martin Luther King’s Dream challenges everyone on this planet, not just Americans. Since moving to Hungary, I’ve realized Americans aren’t any more racist as Hungarians, Australians and Canadians, to name a few. And I guarantee 331 million(pop of USA about 333 million) Americans are not as challenged as you assume, by way of your own ignorance. That statement says a lot about your own challenge.
It’s about time that “Nathaniel” moved to Amsterdam where he can be legally euthanased.
Fudan Univ. is on hold as far as we know.
You must hate Hungary and the Hungarians, my dear Mr. Karacsony. This event would be very profitable for Budapest and Hungary of course and you want to cancel?
You, Sir, are really on the war-pass against your own country. Shame on you.
This is childish behaviour from Karacsony!
Do you really want such a petty man as your leader!
Orban has established good relations with both China and Russia! And he did so with Trump. The job of a small nations’ leader is to ensure the nation is able to count on support from the big boys in times of hardship. Orban gas done that well! Karacsony is simply a boy in short trousers compared to Orban!
