Government Legal

Event Summary

Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar>>> has threatened legal action and constitutional amendments to force President Tamás Sulyok>>> from office. Magyar's Tisza party, which ousted former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán>>> in April, aims to remove key public figures appointed by Orban over the past 16 years. Magyar accuses Sulyok of failing to represent national unity and serving Orban's interests. Sulyok has consistently refused to resign, warning that the proposed legal action would deepen societal division and harm Hungary>>>'s international reputation. Orban's Hungary — Fidesz party has called Magyar's actions an 'unlawful ultimatum', asserting that Sulyok is fulfilling his lawful mandate until 2029. The legislative process, which Magyar states would take about a month, involves using the Tisza party's two-thirds parliamentary majority to amend the constitution.
