In a statement on Monday after the MPs submitted the bill for the first time, the Budapest Pride organizers said that the law was aimed at “sacrificing the sacrifice” to the LGBTQ+ community to give silence to the voices of the orban government.
“This is not child protection, it’s fascism,” wrote by the organizers of the event, who attracts thousands each year and celebrates the history of LGBTQ+ movement, claiming equal rights to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.
Following the law of the law on Tuesday, Budapest Pride spokesman Jojo Majarkic told Associated Press that LGBTQ+ despite the years of orban’s attempts to tarnish the people, the organization indicated to the organization in February that his government would take steps to ban the incident.
“Many, many have been gathered,” said Mazersic. “This is a new thing, compared to previous years attacks, that we received many messages and comments from people, saying,” I have not been proud till now, I was not careful about it, but this year I will stay there and I will bring my family. “
Government crackdown
The new law is the latest step against the LGBTQ+ people, which have been taken by the orbán, whose government has passed other laws that rights groups and other European politicians have reduced the form of oppressive against sexual minorities.
In 2022, the European Union Executive Commission filed a case with the Supreme Court of the European Union against the 2021 Child Protection Act of Hungary. The European Commission argued that the law “discriminates against people on the basis of its sexual orientation and gender identity.”
Hungary’s “Child Protection” law – Banning the “illustration or promotion” of homosexuality in materials available for minors, including television, films, advertisements and literature, prohibits the mention of LGBTQ+ issues in school education programs, and deviations from sex at birth.
