US Embassy says it will continue to advocate for CEU independence
Budapest, April 4 (MTI) – The United States will continue to advocate for the Central European University’s (CEU) independence and unhindered operation in Hungary, US Embassy Charge d’Affaires David Kostelancik said in a statement on Tuesday.
The US is “disappointed by the accelerated passage of legislation targeting CEU”, the statement said.
The legislation was approved despite the serious concerns raised by the US, by hundreds of local and international organizations and institutions, and by thousands of Hungarians who value academic freedom and the many important contributions by the CEU to Hungary, it added.
Â
“The Central European University is a successful and prestigious American-Hungarian institution and has been an important component of the U.S.-Hungarian relationship for 26 years”, it said.

Yawn, , oh look, the NGOs are now running the U.S. embassy in Hungary too!
“and the many important contributions by the CEU to Hungary, it added.” , YES, like the useless degrees offered in the name of the U.S. that is worthless. After having paid for this education by the Hungarian parents, their kids suffer. Spell out the ‘many important contributions’ as my ass is at an all time low trying to understand the lies of SOROS.
