The Foreign Ministry of Romania summoned Oszkár Füzes, Hungary’s Ambassador to Bucharest on 16 May 2012. In the absence of the Ambassador, Ádám Balázs fulfilled the request as chargé d’affaires ad interim.

The Romanian party raised objections against MFA Parliamentary State Secretary Zsolt Németh's earlier criticism on the new Romanian government’s minority policy. Furthermore, they expressed disapproval of the content and the organisation of the planned reburial of József Nyírő. The chargé d’affaires ad interim informed the Romanian Party that the Hungarian Government considered the reburial of the Transylvanian writer to be a piety and cultural event. The Hungarian diplomat emphasised that the Government of Hungary was open and looked forward to cooperating with the new Government of Romania.

Hungary does not understand the Romanian decision on the Hungarian Faculty of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy of Târgu Mureș, which is a major step back, as it infringes upon the fundamental acquired rights of Hungarians in Transylvania. The Hungarian party deems it important that the governments of the two states settle the open issues by way of negotiations.
