Ethnic Hungarians wave flags during celebrations marking the Magyars Day in Romania
Ethnic Hungarians wave flags during celebrations marking the Magyars Day in the Transylvanian town of Odorheiu Secuiesc, 270km (168 miles) north of Bucharest March 15, 2006. Several thousands of ethnic Hungarians held a rally to demand autonomy in Romania just months before its planned European Union entry. The Szeklers, a large Hungarian minority with uncertain ethnic origins living in Transylvania, called on the EU to make their vaguely defined autonomy a condition for Romania's entry to the bloc.
