1/3 "Magyar ohlásil operáciu #Očistec. Fidesz označil za mafiu, Maďarsko chce zbaviť prezidenta aj najvplyvnejších sudcov
Iniciujú ukončenie mandátu prezidenta republiky a novú maďarskú ústavu by chceli potvrdiť referendom, oznámil maďarský premiér."
Hungary: "Péter Magyar announced the 17th amendment to Hungary's Constitution, seeking a strict 12-year term limit for MPs to […] prevent politicians from becoming entrenched."
UK: Prime Ministers can't last even a full term

1/2 "Orbánov režim podľa Magyara za posledného poldruha desaťročia „ukradol zo spoločného blaha maďarského národa – z vreciek maďarského ľudu a zo stolov maďarských detí a starších ľudí – odhadom 20 biliónov maďarských forintov“ (vyše 56 miliárd eur)."

Píše Masha Gessen. Článok pôvodne vyšiel v denníku The New York Times. V sobotu druhého mája sa od skorého rána na námestí pred majestátnou budovou maďarského parlamentu začali zhromažďovať ľudia. Najprv ich boli stovky a neskôr tisíce. Prišli osláviť začiatok novej politickej éry. Je to presne to isté námestie, kde sa…
"After six years, governance under a state of danger has come to an end in Hungary. The state of danger is one of six types of special legal order defined by the Fundamental Law of Hungary, and as explained in our previous article when it was introduced in 2020, it differs from the state of emergency. What is perhaps most important about it is that it allows the government to make decisions quickly, without parliamentary approval, i.e. by passing decrees."

"Zelensky thanks Magyar for his compassion and strong position on Russian drone attack on Transcarpathia
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Péter Magyar condemning Russia’s attack on Ukraine was “an important message”. […] Zelensky was reacting to what the Hungarian Prime Minister had said at the first press briefing of his government."
1/2 "**Clemency scandal files to be made public**
Magyar announced that the government will order a full public investigation into the violations that occurred at the Zsuzsa Kossuth Children’s Home in Bicske. The clemency scandal which broke in 2024 is connected to this institution and it eventually led to the resignations of President Katalin Novák and former Justice Minister (and Péter Magyar’s ex-wife) Judit Varga, as well as Magyar’s entry into politics."
"József Gacsályi, the Deputy Technical Director of the National Water Management Directorate spoke briefly about the drought affecting the region where the press briefing was held. According to him, the situation is very serious because a whole year’s worth of average rainfall is missing "from the system". “We’re no longer talking about an annual drought, but a drought that has dragged on for years.”
1/2 "This did not emerge organically; it was politicians who began to stoke it. According to the lawyer, it is interesting that although former Prime Minister Viktor #Orbán had consistently used the term “Hungarians of #Felvidék” in the past, this did not bother Robert #Fico. Now that Orbán is no longer prime minister, the term has suddenly started to bother the coalition parties."

Péter Magyar clashed with the Slovak government over the Beneš Decrees while still in opposition, but it was his use of the term “Felvidék” that drew the most criticism. Lawsuits have since been filed over this issue. Experts believe that Slovaks and Hungarians should finally understand each other’s grievances, and that politicians should stop fuelling tensions.
1/4 “We have old reflexes, like hearing the term 'Felvidék'" said Kollai, who believes the term has negative connotations among Slovaks. It reminds people of the assimilation efforts of the 19th century; for them, the conflict has a quasi-spiritual nature. According to Vašečka, Felvidék is proof that the meaning of the same word can vary depending on the context."
