Budapest, Jun 5 (EFE): "Undeterred by pandemic restrictions, thousands of Hungarians turned out for a protest here Saturday against right-wing President Viktor Orban’s plan to have a Chinese university open a satellite campus in this capital. The project for what would be the first European outpost of Shanghai’s prestigious Fudan University represents an investment of roughly $1.5 billion, according to the national government. Hungary would need to borrow that money and the work would be done by Chinese companies, creating few if any jobs for local people. Though the idea is controversial for a number of reasons, much of the opposition is over the proposal to build the Fudan campus on a site where liberal Mayor Gergely Karacsony intended to erect affordable housing for Budapest’s student population."
