Hungary passes constitutional amendment to remove Orbán-era president
Hungary's Parliament passed a constitutional amendment to remove President Tamás Sulyok, part of efforts by Prime Minister Péter Magyar's Tisza party to dismantle Viktor Orbán's political legacy. The amendment, supported by a two-thirds majority, faced opposition from Orbán's Fidesz party, which labeled it an attack on democratic order.
