Presentation of VMSZ

VMSZ is the largest Hungarian party in Serbia, founded in 1994. The current Mayor of Subotica is member of the party.

István Molnár, 10 December 2000


Flag of VMSZ

In the party Statutes [1, 2], the party emblem is described as a "stylized tree of life". This description suggests a pattern used in Hungarian folk art, mainly as embroidery. While no mention of it is made in the Statutes, this symbol is always accompanied by the party name initials in Hungarian, as is displayed on the flags.

Originally, the flag did have a ratio between 3:4 and 2:3, with the emblem occupying most of the field, as revealed by some photos [3, 4] taken some time before the end of 2003 (note the presence of the flag of Democratic Opposition of Serbia, whose member the party was). However, in later years, the flag ratio varied a lot and more oblong forms (ratio 1:2 or close) seem to have prevailed; the size of the emblem also varied, as did the relative size of the inscription and the tree symbol [5, 6, 7, 8]. The use of table flags with this design has also been recorded [9]. The emblem was modified in the meantime, now displaying only the top of the tree and the initials [10], but the flag was not changed so far [8, 9].

During the 2010s, a horizontal version of the flag was also introduced; the ratio, emblem size and relative size of the parts of the emblem also varied a lot, while less oblong form and larger emblem seem to have been originally used [11, 12, 13, 14, 15]. Joint use of horizontal and vertical flags has also been recorded [16].
