EU Approves €10 Billion for Hungary Despite Fresh Rule-of-Law Concerns
EU finance ministers signed off on the recovery package despite warnings from constitutional experts and rights groups over the Magyar government’s reforms.

EU finance ministers signed off on the recovery package despite warnings from constitutional experts and rights groups over the Magyar government’s reforms.

A demonstration was called in defence of Hungary’s constitutional order in face of the Magyar government’s blatant rule-of-law violations.

Hungarian police took István Szakács into custody, apparently over a Facebook post about former prime minister Viktor Orbán.

MEP Jorge Buxadé accused the European Parliament of applying the rule of law selectively after years of pressure against Viktor Orbán.

The new government “is crossing every boundary—human, moral, and rule-of-law. Hungarian voters did not give a mandate for this,” ex-PM Viktor Orbán wrote.

The Venice Commission indicated that it was ready to urgently discuss the Hungarian President’s submission regarding the constitutional crisis in Hungary.

The spoiled EP debate would have allowed concerns to be voiced about the constitutional amendments proposed by the new Hungarian government.

Balázs Orbán says Péter Magyar’s government is following the same playbook as Donald Tusk in Poland, using state power to weaken conservative institutions while Brussels looks the other way.

The Commission president claimed LGBT people can now march “without fear,” even though Budapest Pride took place every year throughout Orbán’s time in office.

Balázs Orbán, the former political director of Viktor Orbán praised the Polish President’s move to host his Hungarian counterpart as a vital sovereigntist pushback against external liberal attacks.
