Hungary's parliament passed an amendment to the constitution allowing the government to ban public events by LGBTQ+ communities, sparking criticism of authoritarianism. The amendment, proposed by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's ruling coalition, prioritizes children's rights over LGBTQ+ rights and prohibits the promotion of homosexuality to minors. Opposition lawmakers protested the vote, arguing that the government is dismantling democracy and using anti-LGBTQ+ measures to distract from other issues. The amendment also reinforces binary gender norms and allows for the suspension of dual citizenship for those deemed a threat to public order. Orbán's government has faced backlash for its crackdown on critics and foreign influence in Hungarian politics.
