New Danube Bridge Between Hungary and Slovakia

The Monostor Bridge built between Komárom and Komárno, mainly from European Union funds, has been inaugurated in the presence of the two countries' prime ministers.

"This inauguration, too, stands as proof of the fact that rather than dividing them, the Danube connects Hungarians and Slovaks together," Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán said.

His Slovak counterpart, Igor Matovic noted that during this pandemic period, developments such as the bridge inauguration ceremony, are even more important than usual. The project, co-financed by the European Union, symbolizes the EU itself as a connecting symbol, he added.
