Hungarian Alliance Begins Preparations for Municipal and Regional Elections

The Alliance party, which represents Slovakia's ethnic Hungarian minority, has launched preparations for upcoming municipal and regional elections. Delegates at the party's republican council meeting approved a new organizational statute to guide the party's structure and operations. The gathering also featured presentations of specific proposals from "Coexistence 2040," a strategic document outlining the party's long-term vision for ethnic Hungarian communities in Slovakia. The Alliance traditionally focuses on protecting the rights and interests of Slovakia's Hungarian minority, which comprises about 8 percent of the country's population and is concentrated primarily in southern regions bordering Hungary.
