The Capital’s General Assembly decided back in September that this year the American businessman George Soros, Agárdi Gábor actor and Kertész Ákos writer should be awarded the title Citizen of Honor of Budapest.
Mayor Demszky Gábor then proposed that Kertész Imre be awarded the same title after he received the Nobel Prize on October 10-th from the Swedish Royal Academy. His motion was supported by more than 20 delegates among them many of the opposition.
