Hungary Parliament Votes to Remove President Tamás Sulyok From Office

Hungary’s parliament voted to remove President Tamás Sulyok after the governing Tisza party used its two-thirds majority to push through a constitutional amendment. Sulyok, long seen as aligned with Viktor Orbán, is given five days to sign the changes or refer them to the Constitutional Court, a move that would automatically suspend him and trigger possible impeachment. Opposition lawmakers staged walkouts, accusing the government of enabling arbitrary dismissals. The vote also affects court leadership and limits certain parliamentary candidacies nationwide.
