Political Earthquake In Hungary parliament passes law to oust president in Magyar's power shake-up

 


Hungary's parliament has approved a constitutional amendment on Monday (July 13) to oust President Tamas Sulyok, whom Prime Minister Peter Magyar said is a "puppet" of former premier Viktor Orban.

The legislation is part of Magyar's drive to dismantle Orban's bastions of power, for which he said he had received a strong mandate from voters. Magyar's center-right Tisza Party ended the 16-year rule of Orban's nationalist Fidesz party with a landslide election victory in April.

The amendment would end Sulyok's term immediately, citing society's "serious loss of confidence" in him. Parliament would elect a new president until a new constitution takes effect, or for a maximum of five years.
