Request for SVM’s position on the documented forced assimilation of a child of Hungarian origin

Milan Petrović asks SVM for an official position on the forced assimilation, two illegal adoptions and severance of his Hungarian paternal identity described in his email, and announces that the response or its absence will be recorded.

Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians (SVM/VMSZ) 2026-04-16
The email was sent on 16 April 2026 at 11:53 GMT+2 from [email protected] to [email protected]. The author seeks a clear, recorded position concerning the party’s role in protecting Hungarians in Serbia. He links his paternal line, language and inheritance position to the adoptions of 1979 and 1984, and refers to judgment P2.1435/24. His descriptions of forced assimilation and two illegal adoptions remain his express qualifications. He explains that he is not writing in Hungarian because that language was severed from him in childhood. He announces publication through Origin Dossier and the recording of a reply or its absence. The later embedded message of 19 May states that SVM had not replied; this April source itself contains no party response.

The email sent on 16 April 2026 documents the author’s request that SVM state its official position on his described case of forced assimilation and severed Hungarian paternal identity.

I am writing to you not for political support or a ceremonial reply, but to raise a clear and recorded question concerning the very purpose of a party that presents itself as a protector of the rights of Hungarians in Serbia.

The April email expressly cites judgment P2.1435/24 and criticizes its handling of the paternal record and contradictions. The link opens the existing first-instance judgment; the email’s assessment remains the author’s.

There are records confirming the concrete paternal trace of Pavle / Pál Lakatoš. There are also records showing how that trace was severed in favour of a construct suited to full adoption and the replacement of identity. There is also the present judgment of the Basic Court in Novi Sad in case P2.1435/24, in which the key contradictions were not clarified; instead, the internal documentation of the authority whose conduct was challenged was effectively accepted.

The embedded 19 May letter says SVM had not replied. The linked 16 April email is the supplied earlier request for an official position. These sources do not establish whether a reply arrived later.

I also previously addressed SVM/VMSZ. I informed them of the documented facts and requested their official position. They did not respond.
