Budapest – Hungarian legislators are preparing for the vote of the constitutional amendment, which many critics look at as well as breaking freedoms of installation and expression and the latest move of the populist government to restrict the rights of LGBTQ + communities.
Amendment, which will almost certainly pass on Monday, the two-thirds majority of the competent party for Viktor Orbán, would permanently codify the prohibition of public events that have maintained LGBTQ + communities – including the popular Pride, which is obtained in the capital, Budapest.
It will also provide a constitutional basis for denial identities or sexual characteristics of minority groups and enable some Hungarians to have their citizens suspended if they are considered to be a threat to Hungarian security or sovereignty.
Here is what amendment will do, which includes LGBTQ + Hungarians, and for some of the basic rights of all citizens in the Central European Nation.
Prohibition of LGBTQ + events?
Amendment, 15. To the Hungarian Constitution, he was unilaterally the author and approved the ruling coalition of FIDESZ-KDNP, in March, the law that violated the legislation “Protection of children” is forbidden by the “Overall Overalls under the age of 18.
This law also enables the authorities to use individuals to identify individuals who attend prohibited events – such as Budapest Pride – and may occur for violators up to 200,000 Hungarian forints ($ 546).
Some legal experts claimed that such limits of installation rights violates the Constitution of Hungary. In order to lead pronalves in accordance with constitutional protection, the amendment declares that children’s rights to moral, physical and spiritual development replace any other basic right except life – including peaceful gathering.
Amendment also declares that “sex is a person in birth and can be either a man or woman” – the spread of an earlier amendment that prohibits the same-sex adoption by stating that the mother’s wife and father is a man.
This Declaration will provide the constitutional basis for denial of transgender people’s gender identities, as well as neglect of intersex individuals, which are born with atypical sexual characteristics that do not harmonize with binary conceptions of male and female.
The United Nations Human Rights Agency wrote that up to 1.7% of the global population is born with INTERSEX traits.
Amendment, as well as previous legislation that target LGBTQ + communities, reminds similar restrictions on sexual minorities in Russia. Orbán, seen as Russian President Vladimir Putin’s ally in the European Union, in recent years is prohibited to adopt the same-sex and forbade any LGBTQ + content, including television, films, advertising and literature available to minors.
His government claims that his policy is designed to protect children from “sexual propaganda”, but critics look at them as part of a broader effort for wine-minority wine and mobilize his conservative base.
Citizenship could be suspended
In recent months, Hungary has taken over energetic steps to protect their national sovereignty from what claims that foreign efforts are to affect its policy or even order Orban’s government.
The self-prescribed “iliberal” leader accelerated his long-term efforts to shoot critics like media and groups dedicated to civil rights and anti-corruption, which ordered Hungarian sovereignty by receiving the financial assistance of international donors.
In speech with conspiracy theories in March, Orbán is compared to people who work for such insect groups and “eliminate the entire shadow of the shade of politicians, judges, journalists, pseudo-non-governmental organizations and political activists.”
As part of the effort of government protection, the latest constitutional amendment will enable the suspendant nationality of Hungarians if they are considered to represent a threat to public order, public security or national security.
Such suspensions would refer to Hungarian citizens who keep the citizenship of another country other than EU members or European economic space. Such suspensions can take a maximum of 10 years.
‘This is fascism’
The passage of the law prohibitive pride has set up a wave of protest in Hungary with thousands that drain on the streets to require renovation of installation rights. The protesters used the tactics of blocked bridges and major roads in Budapest, later something Orbán said forbidden by new legislation.
Responding to the prohibition of pride, local organizers wrote: “This is not child protection, this is fascism.”
On Monday, when MPs vote to approve the constitutional amendment, the opposition momentum party will try to block parliament and prevent voting from taking place. The party accused the Orbánova government that “scary and cowardly power”, writing on social media: “We collect them to collect them to lead us to the passenger and deprive us of our freedom.”
Another protest is expected after the passage of amendments.
