Hungarian Football Association Greenlights Greater Hungary Map and Árpád Stripes Despite UEFA Misgivings
Press reports have claimed that the Hungarian Football Association successfully argued to UEFA that the disputed imagery represents unity among Hungarian communities across all borders, and displaying it is not an act of racism. Playsport.ro, however, obtained a letter sent by UEFA General Secretary Theodore Theodoridis to his counterpart at MLSZ, Márton Vági, in which he clarifies that the images in question are still not permitted.
