Talking about any form of territorial autonomy for the Hungarians of Vojvodina, Serbia, is not realistic, Hungarian Foreign Minister Kinga Goncz was quoted as saying in Thursday's Novi Sad daily Dnevnik.

"On the one hand, we know that there are not so many Hungarians in Vojvodina and that they represent just one of a number of ethnic minorities in this province, and on the other, the fact is that the Hungarians do not live in some compact region where they could, possibly, create some kind of territorial autonomy, " the Serbian wire service Tanjug quoted Goncz as saying.

"Goncz assessed that the Hungarians' participation in all levels of Serbia's executive authority was a very good thing, even the more so since the Serb minority was very active in Hungary. In this way, as she put it, the minorities of both countries are no longer a source of problems but rather become a factor of stability and progress," Tanjug wrote in English, quoting the paper.

"It would be far better to fight for Serbia's visa liberalisation than to raise the issue of dual citizenship for the members of the Hungarian ethnic minority in Serbia," wrote Tanjug, quoting the Hungarian FM.
