European Parliament has voted on a resolution that demands action against Hungary, a member State, amid deep concerns about the deterioration in human rights, democracy and the rule of law.
The resolution, backed by 393 deputies to 221 against, sends a strong signal to Hungary that its actions are being closely monitored.
Yesterday’s condemnation of serious deterioration in the rule of law and fundamental rights in Hungary could start a process that could theoretically lead to Hungary losing its EU voting rights.
The resolution specifically talks about the right of expression, academic freedom, rights of migrants, asylum seekers and refugees as well as the right to peaceful gatherings.
