The paper was referring to reports that the Hungarian and Romanian governments had agreed at their joint session in Budapest last Thursday to allow Romanian citizens to enter Hungary by presenting their ID cards only as of January 1 next year, when Romania joins the European Union.
The Interior Ministry had no information about such an agreement, the paper said, and added that the ministry said Romanian nationals would still need a passport to travel to Hungary after January, since their IDs do not contain the safety features compliant with EU regulations.
