@EU_Commission "EU policies can be shaped by you." As organiser of the 11th successful ECI, this was not our experience. On 09.03 the @EU_Commission refused legislation for us. Gathered 1.25M signatures for #NationalRegions like Catalonia or Szeklerland, yet they called our goals “unjustified.”

[National Regions @NationalRegions]

@EUinNL The EUCommision was bleaker claiming that the cohesion policy in place already prevents discrimination. Depopulating Transylvanian villages stands as proof of unresolved problems of #NationalRegions that the Commission could have addressed but chose not to, for political reasons

[National Regions @NationalRegions]

We are currently in the phase of assessing appropriate legal and political steps as a response to this negligent refusal of the @EU_Commission.

[Dabis Attila @AttilaDabis]

📢 The @EU_Commission rejected the #ECI on #NationalRegions, calling legislation “unjustified.”
❗️This ignores 1.25M signatures.
🚫 Politicised. Uninspired. Emptying the ECI of substance.
💪 We need new tools to fight for recognition.

Successful public hearing of the #NationalRegions ECI at the @Europarl_EN, showcasing cross-party support.🇪🇺 The @EU_Commission must act! It has a legal duty under the Treaties to safeguard cultural diversity, and a political duty under the @UN #SDGs to ensure its sustainability.

[European Free Alliance @EFAparty]

Protecting national and regional cultures is important to us.💜

We support the @NationalRegions in the @Europarl_EN, a citizens' petition that aims to preserve the economic cohesion of the EU while protecting the diversity of special cultural and linguistic regions!

[National Regions @NationalRegions]

The next stop of our citizen's initiative will be the public hearing before the @EuropeanParl.

[Dabis Attila @AttilaDabis]

📢 As organisers of the #ECI for #NationalRegions, we had talks with the @EU_Commission, including Exec. VP @RaffaeleFitto, responsible for Cohesion and Reforms, on how the #CohesionPolicy of the #EU can be transformed to protect the identity of national regions across the EU 🇪🇺

⬛️⬜️@assemblea's board member @tonistrubellt attended the act for the Day of the Szekler People -the Hungarian minority in Romania- in Marosvàsàrhely to support the defence of national rights and Szekler autonomy in the face of Bucharest's constant refusal to respect them.

I'm curious if @perplexity_ai's new agentic browser, Comet, will be as good for academic research as rumours have it: https://t.co/omQzsPPf25

"Az emberi jogokkal kapcsolatban olyan veszélyek merülnek fel, mint az etnikai profilalkotás, a gyűlöletbeszéd könnyű előállítása vagy az autonóm fegyverrendszerek fejlesztése.
Emellett a deepfake videókat és álhíreket a választások befolyásolására is használhatják."

🎓 I just finished an intense course of @UMontreal and @IVADO_Qc into the world of "Bias and Discrimination in #AI.
🙌Thank you to all the speakers: @gfarnadi, @emrek, @NicolasVermeys, @n_demarcellis, @BehrouzBabaki, and many others for the valuable insights!

#AlderdiaGara. It was a pleasure to take part in the annual #AlderdiEguna representing not just Szeklers but all minority Hungarians. Eskerrik Asko @eajpnv for the invitation!

[Dabis Attila @AttilaDabis]

👏🤖My op-ed was published today on @theacademic0, explaining the complex challenges that #AI poses to universities worldwide. "The overarching challenge of generative AI ... is not the mere use of these tools but rather their unethical, uncritical, and irresponsible overuse".

[Dabis Attila @AttilaDabis]

It was a pleasure to celebrate together and show the solidarity of the Szekler peoples with the Catalans' peaceful self-determination aspirations.

[Dabis Attila @AttilaDabis]

Many thanks for the cordial reception of Assemblea President @lluis_llach, Jaume Bardolet, and Núria Falcó on the occasion of the #DiadadeCatalunya.

After 1,5 years of research, it's good to have our article, co-authored with Csaba Csáki, published in a leading Journal.
