It's very bizarre.  I'll do some more digging at my end.  She was well knwon around here as she basically had her hands on the purse strings of Hungarian money for minority cultural and educational projects.

Musings on life in Romania and beyond

Could you also tell something about the Romanian-language paper "Cotidianul"?

That's the paper that first wrote about the scandal. I found a cryptic line in an article that "it is considered Fidesz's voice in Romania", which is rather strange - could it be a paper of the Hungarian minority written in Romanian?

Also, what can you tell me about Szatmári Ildikó's effect in Transsylvania? I do not trust right-wing papers' claims (especially since they bought into some forgeries in previous scandals), while the nominally left-wing press (which I don't trust that much either) and the only paper that I would term neutral (HVG) didn't research that angle much.

I forgot: I found out that much about Cotidianul that that paper published the "Béla Markó was a Securitate agent" claims.
