Hungarians protest against planned Chinese university campus

Reuters– BUDAPEST — Thousands of Hungarians, some of them holding banners declaring “Treason,” protested on Saturday against a Chinese university’s plans to open a campus in Budapest.

Liberal opponents of nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban accuse him of cosying up to China, and fear the campus could undercut the quality of higher education and help Beijing increase its influence in Hungary and the European Union.

“I do not agree with our country’s strengthening feudal relationship with China,” Patrik, a 22-year-old student who declined to give his full name, said at the protest in the Hungarian capital. more here

  1. I don’t get it.
    Orban has been a staunch defender for his country’s minimal intake of Muslim immigrants.
    And I applaud his sanity there.
    Why would he be allowing the Communist Chinese such a foothold in his country?
    Is it money?
    Does the CCP pay so much better than the Muslims?
    Say it ain’t all about the money. Please.

    Why aren’t the US universities investing in Hungary?
    Not enough Basketball & Football crowds!

    That is country that still has Math, Science, and Engineering not Maff, Gender studies, & Patriach Social Construct Studies.
