Summary
The National Assembly in Budapest approved the controversial project of the new head of government Péter Magyar by 139 votes to six. The Hungarian Parliament has voted for a constitutional amendment to remove the Hungarian President Tamas Sulyok. Magyars Tisza party had won a two-thirds majority in the parliamentary elections in April and thus ousted Orbán, who has been in power since 2010.
Furthermore, Sulyok, who has been in office since 2024, is a confidant of Orbán. Recently, however, criticism had increased that a deposition of Sulyok could create a dangerous precedent. Sulyok and other senior officials were, according to Magyar, “puppets” of his predecessor.
In addition, Sulyok had suffered a “severe loss of confidence,” the government said.
