On January 27, 2026, a discussion was held at the Csemadok headquarters in Komárom/Komárno on the turning points in the history of Hungarians in Slovakia over the past decades. The host, university lecturer Attila Petheő, posed questions to historian and archivist László Bukovszky, former Slovak government's commissioner for minority affairs, and Iván Gyurcsík, researcher at our institute and university lecturer.

The participants discussed three main topics: they outlined the significance of the period between 1968 and 1989 for Hungarians in Slovakia, then they assessed the events following the regime change in 1989, with particular regard to the 1994 general assembly of elected Hungarian minority representatives in Komárno,  and finally, they analyzed the Beneš Decrees, which reflect the principle of collective guilt and are currently the subject of public debate, as well as the punishability of addressing this issue.
