Minister for Culture and Innovation Balázs Hankó has announced that his Ministry will be supporting the Sándor Csoóri Programme with 2.5 billion HUF (around $7.1 billion) this year. The programme was created in 2016 to help Hungarian folk dancers, musicians, and craft artists cultivate Hungarian culture, in the motherland and across the border alike.
From time to time, the left-wing media circulate rumours that the Hungarian government is planning to create single-member constituencies in areas inhabited by Hungarians living beyond the border, such as Transylvania or Carpathia. This time, it was Péter Magyar, the leader of the opposition Tisza party, who initiated the spread of these false rumours, which the government has repeatedly denied. The left has consistently looked down upon Hungarians living beyond the borders, continually blaming them for their own political failures.
