Dear Ministry Responsible for Social Relations and Culture,
On behalf of the Prime Minister’s Cabinet (Miniszterelnöki Kabinet), and pursuant to Government Decree 90/2026 (V.13.) on the duties and powers of members of the Government, we are forwarding to you, on grounds of competence, the inquiry received in the electronic mailbox of the Prime Minister’s Office (Miniszterelnökség), for further handling.
At the same time, we are notifying the person who submitted the inquiry of the transfer.
Respectfully,
Prime Minister’s Office (Miniszterelnökség)

Subject: (ME_ERK/16706/2026) Reminder and update: documented case of Hungarian paternal identity erasure in Serbia
Author’s message — original English section
Dear Prime Minister Magyar,
I am writing to remind you of my previous email sent to [email protected] regarding my documented case from Délvidék / Vojvodina, involving the forced assimilation and administrative erasure of a child of Hungarian paternal origin through two illegal adoptions in Serbia in 1979 and 1984.
Since that message, there has been a further and serious development.
The courts of Serbia have now, through both a first-instance and a second-instance decision, maintained the legal consequences of the 1979 adoption. In substance, Serbia’s judiciary has not corrected the original severance of my Hungarian paternal line. It has confirmed it again.
This means that Hungary’s southern neighbour has, through its courts, performed a renewed legal subjugation of my identity: it has continued to deny my original name, my paternal Hungarian line, my separation from the Hungarian language, and my displaced inheritance position.
For clarity: the identity confusion surrounding my name is not something I created for myself. It was created by the quasi-state of Serbia through its social welfare authorities, adoption procedures, civil registry interventions, and later court decisions.
I was born as Milivoj Miletić. My biological father was Pál Lakatoš. In my early childhood within the paternal environment, I was known as Palika Lakatoš. The later administrative identities were imposed through state procedures, not freely chosen by me.
The case is not abstract. It is documented through birth records, adoption records, social welfare files, probate proceedings, court decisions, DNA evidence, and testimony from the biological family.
I also previously addressed SVM/VMSZ. I informed them of the documented facts and requested their official position. They did not respond.
This silence is politically relevant. SVM/VMSZ presents itself as the representative of Hungarians in Serbia and receives political and financial support for that role. Yet in a concrete case where a Hungarian paternal line, language, identity, and inheritance position were administratively cut from a child, there was no response.

Author’s message — original English section, continued
Because I have no party machinery, no institutional protection, and no state apparatus behind me, I have used the tools available to me. As a software engineer, I created an AI-assisted orchestral-choral composition in Hungarian:
https://youtu.be/DsczwBGlCp0?list=PLJgDQop7BOTOgK0j69vUkeGeQt4-i_eHx
Its title is “Vér emlékezik” — “Blood remembers.”
It is an orchestral-choral experiment inspired by Hungarian / Pannonian memory, ancestry, identity, and the return of a lost name.
The central Hungarian phrases are:
A név visszatér — The name returns
Vér emlékezik — Blood remembers
Föld nem felejt — The land does not forget
This is not entertainment in place of legal action. It is the cultural trace of a documented legal and identity crime. When institutions refuse to restore the name, the archive, the bloodline, and the language speak.
Due to the need to survive, work, and handle my ordinary obligations, the Origin Dossier project has taken more time than planned. It will be published as soon as my obligations allow. Out of respect for my origin, it will also have a Hungarian version.
That is why I now place the question directly before the Government of Hungary:
If a child of Hungarian paternal origin was administratively removed from his Hungarian paternal line in Serbia, and if Serbia’s courts in 2026 maintain that result through first-instance and second-instance judgments, does Hungary regard this as a matter of concern for the protection of Hungarian identity, language, and origin outside Hungary?
I am not requesting a symbolic statement.
I am placing before you a documented case in which my Hungarian paternal origin was erased by the institutions of Serbia, and in which that result is now being maintained by the Serbian judiciary.
I also ask plainly:
If SVM/VMSZ remains silent in such a case, while claiming to represent Hungarians in Serbia, what exactly is it representing?
Respectfully,
Milivoj Miletić (Lakatoš)
