University hounded out of Hungary by Orbán reaches out to new government

Prospect of partial return to Budapest by Central European University suggests confidence in Hungary's future

A university that Viktor Orban tried to chase out of Hungary is open to expanding its presence in Budapest, in a mark of confidence in the country's democratic future.

Carsten Q Schneider, the interim president and rector of Central European University (CEU), said it was interested in increasing its programmes in Budapest, as long as this did not damage the student experience.
