Seventeen EU nations have raised alarms over Hungary's recently enacted law that restricts public events for LGBTQ+ communities. The law allows for fines against Pride event organizers and includes potential use of facial recognition to identify participants. This declaration, supported by significant EU members like France and Germany, emphasizes a commitment to human rights and the core values of the EU. The group is pressing for action from the European Commission to address these anti-democratic measures amid ongoing discussions about Hungary's government policies.
A group of 17 European Union countries expressed concern regarding Hungary's law that could ban LGBTQ+ public events, threatening fundamental human rights and equality principles.
The EU ministers emphasized the need for Hungary to revise its controversial law, calling it alarming due to the democratic backsliding and violation of human rights.
