Fidesz Budapest mayoral candidate urges cooperation between Budapest leadership and government
Alexandra Szentkirályi, the ruling Fidesz party’s candidate for mayor of Budapest, has called for closer cooperation and dialogue between the leadership of Budapest and the central government in the interest of turning the capital city into a cleaner, safer and tidier place.
In order to achieve that goal, she met Sándor Pintér, the interior minister, to discuss public safety and the city’s transport services, and the situation around the homeless and the inner city’s “party quarter”.
Szentkirályi urges cooperation between Budapest and the government
Szentkirályi urged closer cooperation between the Budapest Police Headquarters (BRFK) and FORI, the authority overseeing the city’s public security.
The duration of joint patrols by the two authorities has significantly dropped, Szentkirályi said, noting that while BRFK-FORI had spent 37,000 hours on joint patrols in 2019 the duration of those patrols dropped to 2,022 hours by 2023.
In connection with transport services, Szentkirályi called for ensuring drivers and cyclists “the possibility of safe transport”.
She criticised the current leadership of Budapest over “not doing anything” about the problem of homelessness, calling for better quality care for the homeless and assistance to help them reintegrate into society and find employment.
Szentkirályi said a solution had to be sought out for the public safety problem posed by the nightlife of the inner city’s “party quarter”, pledging to put forward proposals in the coming weeks.
