Hungary Votes to Remove President | San Francisco News

Hungary’s Parliament just voted to strip President Tamás Sulyok of power in a bold constitutional move, part of Prime Minister Péter Magyar’s sweeping effort to dismantle Viktor Orbán’s 16-year legacy. With a commanding parliamentary majority, Magyar’s Tisza party passed an amendment aimed at restoring democratic norms — including a new financial oversight office and a 12-year term limit for lawmakers — while Fidesz boycotted and protested. Sulyok now has five days to sign the bill; if he refuses, impeachment looms. Magyar, who campaigned on removing Sulyok, sees this as a mandate from the people, while Sulyok defiantly resists stepping down — setting the stage for a historic political realignment in Hungary.
