US to help Hungary with Roma integration programme

The United States is ready to share its experiences gained through the integration of Afro-Americans to help Hungary close the gap between its Roma minority and majority society, Lajos Korozs, Hungary’s deputy social minister learnt during talks in Washington on Tuesday.

The talks focused on possible ways to adapt an integration programme of needy families successfully completed in New York to Hungarian circumstances, Korozs told MTI following the talks.

The Hungarian delegation was received by Pamela Quanrud, Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs.

    great – first Pamela Quanrud strikes out with terrible ideas helping
    George W plan for the invasion of Iraq, then she’s back with ideas
    for Hungary about how to integrate the Roma. Trust her as far as
    you can throw her.

    Pamela Quanrud? African negroes worked the tobacco and cotton fields,worked in the car factories in Detroit, Chicago, etc. They helped create the wealth for America, paid for their own education, and created a culture independent of what White America had to offer. Blues and Jazz and Soul music is “black” music enjoyed by millions of Whites.
    Rock n Roll was a fusion of Hillbilly and the Blues.
    How can Quanrud/US justify the statement: “experience gained with the integration of Afro-Americans to help Hungary close the gap between its Roma minority and majority society”?
    Gypsies are a different culture, Hungary is a different country. And, whenever those Yankees offer to help..well, er, don’t hold your breath!

    This poor creature should first mind about her own “democratic”
    country! Guantanamo, arming the arabs from had to toes than
    worry later, reconstruct New Orleans… there is a long list, what
    americans should worry within their boundaries!
