Hungary’s parliament amends the constitution to ban the events of 2LGBTQ

On Monday, the Hungary Parliament approved an amendment to the constitution that allows the government to prohibit public events by 2SLGBTQ+ societies, a decision that legal scholars and critics call another step towards tyranny by the popular government.

The amendment, which requires two -thirds voting, was transferred on partisan lines with 140 votes and 21 against.

It was proposed by the ruling fidesz-kdnp alliance, led by VikTor Orbán.

Before voting – the last step to amend – opposition politicians and other demonstrators tried to prevent a parking garage in Parliament.

The police removed the demonstrators physically, who used the postal code links to connect themselves together.

The amendment declares that children’s rights to moral, physical and spiritual development replace any right other than the right to life, including to assemble peacefully.

The controversial “child protection” legislation prohibits Hungary “portrayal or enhance” homosexuality of minors under the age of 18.

The amendment is recorded quickly through Parliament in March prohibiting the general events held by 2SLGBTQ+ societies, including the famous pride event in Budapest, which attracts thousands annually.

This law also allows the authorities to use facial recognition tools to identify people who attend banned events – such as Budapest Pride – and can come with fines of up to 200,000 galaxy forn ($ 769 of CDN).

“The dismantling of democracy and the rule of law, and in the past two months or three months, we see that this process has passed,” said Dávid Bedő, the legislator who carries the opposition momentum who has participated in the siege attempt, before the vote that Urban and Juds over the past fifteen years said, “Dismantling democracy and the rule of law, and in the past two or three months, we see that this process has passed,” said Dávid Bedő, the legislator who carries the opposition momentum who has participated in the siege attempt, before the vote that Urban and Juds for the past fifteen years said, “Dismantling democracy and the rule of law, and in the past two or three months, we see that this process has passed,” said Dávid Bedő, the legislator who holds the opposition momentum who has participated in the siege attempt.

He said that with the approaching elections in 2026, the Urban Party is backward in opinion polls behind a new opposition competitor, “they will do everything in their power to stay in power.”

Overcoming lawmakers used air pods to disable the vote, which lasted a few moments. Hungary’s government has a campaign against 2SLGBTQ societies in recent years, and says that the policies of “child protection” – which prevent the availability of minors from any substance indicating homosexuality – are necessary to protect children from what you call “ideology” and “sexes between the sexes”.

Critics say that measures do little to protect children and are used to distract from the most serious problems facing the country and mobilize the right -wing Urban base before the elections.

“This endeavor, which we see by the government, has nothing to do with the rights of children,” said Dale Doburte, a lawyer in the Hungarian Civil Liberties Union, describing “pure propaganda”.

The amendment allows transit identities between them

The new amendment also states that the constitution is recognized by two sexes, male and female-expanding the previous amendment prohibits the adoption of gay by saying that the mother is a woman and a man’s father.

The advertisement provides a constitutional basis for depriving sexual identities for transgender people, as well as ignoring the presence of individuals among players who are born with sexual characteristics that are not in line with the bilateral concepts of males and females.

In a statement on Monday, government spokesman Zoltan Kovax wrote that the change “is not an attack on the individual self -expression, but clarification that legal standards are based on biological reality.”

“It is definitely and is full and full of expressing and excluding people, not only from the national community, but even from the human society.”

It is the fifteenth amendment to the constitution of Hungary since the form of the Urban Party is one side and agreed to it in 2011.

Facial recognition to identify demonstrators

Adam Rumbort, a HCLU lawyer, said that although Hungary has used face recognition tools since 2015 to help police in criminal investigations and find missing persons, the last law prohibits pride that allows technology to be used in a wider way and problems.

This includes monitoring and deterring political protests.

“One of the most important basic problems is its invasion, only the huge size of the infiltration that occurs when the mass monitoring is applied to a crowd,” said Rumbort.

He added: “More prominent in this case is the influence on freedom of assembly, specifically the superficial influence that arises when people are afraid of going out and showing their political or ideological beliefs for fear of persecution.”

Citizenship suspension

The amendment approved on Monday also allows the insane with a dual nationality in a non -European economic country hanging on their citizenship for up to 10 years if they consider that they pose a threat to public order, public security or national security.

Hungary has taken steps in recent months to protect its national sovereignty, which claims that external efforts to influence its policies or even the Urban government.

The self -described “non -liberal” leader accelerated his long efforts to abandon critics, such as the media and groups designated for civil rights and anti -corruption, which he says has undermined Hungary by receiving financial assistance from international donors.

In a letter loaded with conspiracy theories in March, Urban compared the people working for such insect groups, and pledged to “eliminate the entire shadow army” of “politicians, judges, false journalists and political activists.”
