Budapest book exhibition highlights China's modernization path


BUDAPEST, July 7 (Xinhua) -- A book exhibition titled "Chinese Modernization in Books" opened here Monday at the China Book Corner, offering Hungarian readers access to works that trace China's modernization path.

The event, organized by the Hungarian Workers' Party with support from the Chinese Embassy in Hungary, aims to promote greater understanding of socialism with Chinese characteristics among Hungarian audiences.

Modernization in China is people-centered and about improving lives, Gyula Thurmer, president of the Hungarian Workers' Party, said, adding, "We would like to help the Hungarian people learn about socialism with Chinese characteristics from original sources."

Chinese Ambassador to Hungary Gong Tao said that Chinese modernization brings peaceful development and harmonious coexistence between man and nature, benefiting the Chinese people and promoting the common development of the world.

Hailing China's modernization path, Vince Lisztes, a young member of the Hungarian Workers' Party, called on fellow members to read at least one Chinese book each year.

Launched in 2024, the China Book Corner now offers about 400 books in Chinese, Hungarian, and other languages.
