Hungarian Prime Minister Magyor publicly apologized after legendary chess player Judit Polga declined to be nominated as Hungary's next president. Majol claimed that he was too hasty in announcing Polga's nomination to the outside world, and stated that he took full responsibility for the incident. He posted on Facebook last Sunday that Polga, 49, can represent national unity and plans to meet with Polga on Monday to ask if she will accept the nomination. Although most presidential positions are ceremonial, Polga said he is not ready to take on “the historic responsibility of uniting a country with many differences.”
