BeaverFever Posted September 15, 2022 Report Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) Hungary is no longer a full democracy, says European parliament Hungary can no longer be considered a full democracy, the European parliament has said in a powerful symbolic vote against Viktor Orbán’s government. In a resolution backed by 81% of MEPs present to vote, the parliament stated that Hungary had become a “hybrid regime of electoral autocracy”, citing a breakdown in democracy, fundamental rights and the rule of law…. https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2022/sep/15/hungary-is-no-longer-a-full-democracy-says-european-parliament Remember Hungary is a EU member being sanctioned by its peers. Confirming what everyone has been saying for the better part of a decade: Rigged elections, abuse of office, massive corruption and cronyism, shameless Putin-loving. No wonder Tucker and the Republicans love Orban so much. Edited September 15, 2022 by BeaverFever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreeBeard Posted September 16, 2022 Report Share Posted September 16, 2022 Interesting. Apparently, the EU is preparing to cut billions of dollars that Hungary would receive. Good move, considering their anti-democratic moves lately. EU should be quicker to move against countries like Hungary and Turkey. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
