Dear JetSet,
Well yes, there is a chance that the law will cause some "trepidation", but international experience hasn't "produced" such reactions yet. "You've got that right" (as one of my Canadian friends would say) about creating a bond between "Foreign Hungarians" and the mother land, and helping Hungarians who are not Hungarian citizens. I am really glad that you like it. I think it would be and excellent idea if all the countries in Central-Eastern and Eastern Europe would create similar Laws, and then there would be no tension at all, because every minority could "feel itself home" in its mother country. Well yes, maybe it's not really a law, but this is how politicians call it, "The Status Law", so I guess it's okay to use it that way. I am not sure, but I think I've heard some "gossip" about the Ukrainian government is thinking of creating a similar law with Canada. (considering that there are lots of Ukrainian speaking people in Canada) Is that true or it's just a "gossip"?
sincerely: ISH
