A few days ago, the Musai-Muszáj action group asked the RMDSZ to help ensure that the Christmas market has Hungarian subtitles, that the event has a Hungarian-language website and program booklet, and that Romanian, German, English and Romani Christmas songs are played for the visitors. along with songs. Despite his request, the organizers of the Christmas fair that opened on Friday evening in Cluj's Main Square did not place a Hungarian sign.
Last year's event, which was canceled this year, can only be entered by those with a Covid-19 certificate (except for children under the age of 12), which is why there were long lines in front of the entrance gates after the opening. Handcrafted products, jewelry, clothes, souvenirs, and sweets are sold in the wooden houses set up at the fair, there are also several small kitchens, and there is also a Ferris wheel waiting for those who want to have fun. By the way, there is a limit on the number of people, 2,000 people who have been vaccinated or who have suffered from the disease can stay on the Main Square at the same time. However, the organizers of the event did not run it with Hungarian subtitles.

Béla Gergely Rácz, the leader of the RMDSZ faction of the city council , expressed his disappointment in his Facebook post published on Friday evening after his participation in the official opening that, despite repeated requests and the help offered, visitors to the fair are not greeted with a Hungarian sign. Gergely Béla Rácz told the Szabadság daily in Cluj that they asked the directors to account for the omission, and the answer was that due to the rush, there was no time to print and place the Hungarian subtitles, but this will be replaced on Monday.
