Romania thanks renewed support for OECD accession, says Hungarian FM

Romania’s foreign minister has thanked the Hungarian government for pledging again support for its accession to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó told MTI on Monday, after speaking to Teodor Melescanu by phone.

Szijjártó, who is on an official visit to Vietnam, cited Melescanu as saying that his government would do its utmost to ensure that

the situation of a school for ethnic Hungarians in Targu Mures (Marosvásarhely), in central Romania, would soon be resolved.

As we wrote before, the foreign ministry summoned Romania’s ambassador after Romanian authorities made a move to suspend the operations of a Catholic secondary school in Targu Mures/Marosvásárhely.
