President's actions against 'overreach' by PM Orbán's government, says Hungarian report

Hungarian President Tamás Sulyok is facing an increasingly aggressive campaign from Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's government, which critics say threatens the constitutional order.

The government is reportedly seeking to remove Sulyok from his post, but instead of utilizing the impeachment process outlined in the constitution, which requires the president to intentionally violate the fundamental law or commit a crime, they are pursuing a constitutional amendment to achieve their goal.

Magyar Péter's relentless demands have drawn international attention, with Politico noting the potential for further trouble for the prime minister. The government's approach raises questions about the rule of law, potentially leading to the renewed freezing of EU funds.

Significant public concern has emerged over the prime minister's uncompromising stance on removing the president. On Sunday afternoon, a demonstration was held in front of the Sándor Palace in Budapest to express solidarity with the president and uphold public officials and state institutions.
