"Despite piling on the pressure, the Hungarian government is having no luck pushing the Slovak cabinet into taking steps. But nobody has yet managed to force the anti-Hungarian genie back into the bottle."There is no problem with relations wherever politics isn't involved," - said Etelka Riba, vice-president of the National Slovak Minority Council in connection with the rising tide of anti-Hungarian sentiment in Slovakia.
But it would seem politics has spread far and wide since Jan Slota, president of the Slovak National Party, a member of the governing coalition, made repeated anti-Hungarian statements, saying he would prefer to see the Hungarians of Slovakia living on the far side of the Danube."
