President says politicians’ “hysteria” not harming Hungarian-Slovak cooperation

Disputes of “big politics” has not affected cross-border cooperation between Hungarian and Slovak towns along the two countries’ borders, Hungarian President Laszlo Solyom said in Ipolytarnoc, near the border, on Sunday.

“The outbreak of hysteria among political leaders has not spread to the people,” Solyom said after attending a forum on regional cross-border cooperation during a visit to the Bukk National Park.

Solyom said he had been briefed about grassroots projects in the region, including bridge and railway constructions along the border river Ipoly, as well as a geopark planned over the area of almost one hundred Hungarian and Slovak towns. The Novohrad-nograd Geopark project has already been granted the right to use the UNESCO emblem, he added.
