Hungarian President Sulyok Signs Constitutional Amendment Ending His Term Prematurely

Hungarian President Sulyok has signed a constitutional amendment that ends his term prematurely, paving the way for an early transition in the country’s highest ceremonial office. The change adjusts the presidency’s timeline and opens the process for selecting a successor under newly revised constitutional arrangements. Supporters say the amendment brings clarity to institutional rules, while critics argue it alters leadership arrangements in a way that could politicize constitutional practice. A follow-up process will determine who assumes the role next.
