Guys why does your President call Cluj-Napoca Kolozsvar? (talking about the english sub only) Also she came back from a meeting with the President of Poland and apparently there is no call to meet with the President of Romania, i find that weird

Because she’s a moustache-less shit
cmon is this really the worst you can say about her? calling a city on its hungarian name?
Cluj-Napoca hungarian name is Kolozsvar. All the people in hungary knows it as Kolozsvar. That’s all I think. About why she did not meet with the president of Romania is she got no invite I assume. Hungarian and Romanian goverments are not really best friends.

She looks super unfit tho.
Idk man, right wing revisionism. I always use the appropriate name for a settlement beyond the border when speaking English, it’s common courtesy.
I won’t catch a German calling Gdansk Danzig, or a Greek/Italian calling Istanbul Constantinople lol.
I do use Kolozsvar when speaking in Hungarian with Hungarians though, eventually we’ll let go of these names though, such is history. Settlements come and go, and they change hands and names frequently.
least insecure r*manian
Anyway she used wrong, not Kolozsváron but Kolozsvárott
Because Cluj’s hungarian name is Kolozsvár. Like Vienna is Wien in german, and Bécs in hungarian. I think, she will meet with the romanian president too, but Poland is a priority. Our relations with them is not the best right now.
Basically she is communicating with the Hungarian audience even when she writes in English.
Different things have different names in other languages.
Does this upset the Romanian people?
És senki nem baszta bele a vízbe?!
She is a fucking idiot with the diplomatic sense of Genghis Khan
why do romanians call London – Londra ?
fyi: we love to translate everything – e.g. Pope John Paul 2, nope – that’s Masodik Janos Pal Papa
Vajon direkt más szinű a feje mint a teste?
We also say Párizs instead of Paris, Peking instead of Beijing, etc. It’s basically the same thing
Its hungarian like come on culturely it will always be even if the state owner is romanian
strongest romanian
It could be an effortless post, but if there is idea behind it the most plausible explanation is she wants to appeal to the English speaking Hungarian diaspora audience (who have these location names in mind in Hungarian). This is common practice of the public media’s English programs. The other explanation which would make sense but is very likely not the case (since it is a nearly never discussed topic) is to spark controversy about the troubled, arbitrary renaming of Cluj to Cluj-Napoca in the 1970’s.
Ja, gondolom ha Pestet is elfoglalják, akkor most jönne az uraság számonkérően, hogy miért nem Budapesta-Aquincum. Aha. Bocsánat, és az én kurva anyám.
mustache shit
Because she is a stupid bitch.
Because a lot of “before trianon” places has hungarian names. Even in our maps.
Is anybody know where is romania(the gypsy’s mother land)?
