His wife was later informed by telephone that she was a widow. Arpad Visky. one of the most prominent Hungarian actors in Romania. was found hanged from a tree by a policeman just minutes after the death. The incident followed several weeks of official intimidation as Visky had applied to emigrate to Hungary. Reports such as these warrant a thorough investigation. The list of complaints of unexplained disappearances. torture and harassment of priests. denial of the right to work. supposedly guaranteed in Romania. and forced dislocation seems never to end. I would like to see evidence of improved conditions for the ethnic Hungarian minority in Romaniaincluding simple access to Hungarian schools and churches. of easier and fairer emigration procedures. of a halt to religious persecution and political imprisonmentas an integral part of any extension of MFN status for Romania.
