Budapest will rename the streets surrounding the planned campus of a Chinese university to protest against the project, which Hungary’s opposition says is
emblematic of Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s drift from western democratic values.
The streets in the capital’s industrial south, where Fudan University plans to set up a campus, will be renamed Uighur Martyrs street, Dalai Lama street and Free Hong Kong street, among others, Budapest Mayor Gergely Karacsony said at a briefing on Wednesday.
The multi-billion dollar private campus, which Orban’s government plans to finance via a loan from China, has become a hot topic before parliamentary elections due early next year.
