When I first visited here a few years ago, I didn't expect a city of 200,000 to be so significant with such a developed and well-managed university. So, I am very proud that the University of Debrecen has joined the European University Games. I am also proud that we have now become part of the history of the University of Debrecen, just as the university has become a part of our history."
