Civil Social Systems ‘Euronevs’ interviewed described BillThis will impose fines for organizations that accept foreign funding, for example, they affect democratic debate or Depict the rule of law in HungaryAs a threat to insulting the policies of the EU and improving civil society and independent newspapers.
Hungarian Prime Minister, Victor OrbonMarch 15, the National Festival, produced a “spring cleaning” of his party to get rid of “winter errors”. “We will clean the financial machines you have purchased With politicians, judges, journalists, false civil organizations and political activists, corrupt dollars, ”the Hungarian Prime Minister said.
Bill On “Transparency in Public Life” presented in the name of Fides Janos Halaz’s MEP, It was posted on the website of Parliament at midnight on Tuesday. According to the bill, organizations that receive foreign funding and threaten the Hungarian sovereignty will be added to the office for sovereignty protection.
Companies included in the list may impose a fine of up to 25 times the amount of foreign aid and lose the possibility of getting up to 1% of the income tax of natural persons. His high positions are considered important public actors And to publish detailed patriotic statements; Foreign subsidies can be obtained only under the approval of the office and nationalists, with a fully documented private document or under radical bureaucratic requirements.
As in terms of being threatened by Hungarian sovereignty, The bill defines cases in taxation modeBut they are very broadly criticizing any expression, even the slightest criticism of the government. For example, “influence in democratic debate” or “Act in order to influence it As a result of elections ”they applies to any journalism that treats public problems.
LA law defines assistance as any displacementService or Donation, the amount earned in the EU competition or the microtoneation of a citizen with a double -nation.
Whoever can become a target
Anyone can submit to this controlAnyone can become a goal, because in Hungary today An important part of independent journalism and voluntary organizations gets some sort of If foreign funding does not participate in the EU tenders, he can be subject to this, he said, ‘EuroNius’ Tamas Botoki, the editor of the research portalin ‘átlatsá’.
Since 2010, the Orbon Government Has systematically eliminated important independent magazines He has created with him and his own media empire. This is the advertising machineSuitable for running different messages, It is funded with disguised subsidies State advertising, and two Hungarian media companies have submitted a complaint with the EU Competition Commission, with the support of detailed data.
The data shows it Number of state grants for advertising of companies When believing in the ruling party believed, the media increases spectacularly, and the latter publishes the news, but for some reason a media withdraws from the pro -newspaper, it immediately falls to zero, for example, the owner’s support.
In the face of the state subsidized state, Independent Press had to take advantage of all financial resources Available, some of them are from the European Union, others from the United States, and the international cooperation of others, and the other Hungian citizen is possible to allocate 1% of their personal income tax to a charity. In addition, many magazine products have reached microotonations or at least, area allowances. With the new bill, Can close the financial resources By power, whose decision is not subject to any judicial review.
Our first explanation is, this is only bThis can be seen as an open battle . Vain that they did not get much money Grants, because the law can authorize both the acceptance of microotonations that its work is impossible.
Hungarian ruling parties They justify the repression of volunteers In the previous elections, the coalition of the small parties was united, despite its ideological differences, and the funds for the US -based campaign. EU funds to critical newspapers And civil society organizations and Hungarian law -related practices are considered external pressure in favor of the opposition. We contacted Fides to this article, but they did not respond.
Hard times in Hungary
The fact that the project has been submitted by a personal eurodebrating can reduce the approval process. Victor Arbon government faces fierce challenges by 2025. The economy has not grown for many years, however The Prime Minister has promised a “intelligent start” According to tight data, in early 2025, GDP fell back in the first quarter.
The political space against Fitz at this time is not occupied Dissa, which was created for many small competitions, but by a party that was created a year ago, is a few more popular percentage points than Fides, but even the Fides politicians in the background claim that two games are tied up.
In the Romanian presidential electionArban has issued a hidden statement Supported for serious right -wing candidate George Sime. SIMI, a Hungarian minority party in Romania, has unanimously rejected, as the candidate’s major political materials until recently are an aggressive hangarism.
AdvertisementAlthough Arban has said that he will not interfere in presidential elections The Romanians have explained the words of the Hungarian prime minister as a clear support, and the publication on social networks during the campaign. The case is the leader of the Dissa Party Better Makyar Arbon accuses Transilvania of betraying HungarianThey are their unconditional.
Since Orbon provided Citizenship in Hungarian Minority It lives in neighboring countries and weakens this relationship is a new one The danger to the Hungarian prime minister’s rule.
The Romanian example also proves that the Hungarian government is not foreign to interfere with the internal affairs of other countries. Victor Arban has personally campaigned with many populist politicians .
He has provided asylum to many right -wing politicians Corrupt and accused of an event Rescutter is a Milorad Dodic. A family view of the Arban government is the result and the inevitable opposition in the capital and European corporations against foreign influential Can handle better than other challenges For those who face the country.
