http://www.euronews.net/ Hungary under Prime Minister Viktor Orban has brought in a new constitution in spite of strong criticism from the opposition at home and from other countries, European Union partners included.




The centre-right Fidesz party government is moving ahead ignoring protesters who say the new moves are undemocratic.




Orban's government has taken advantage of its huge majority in parliament to rewrite Hungary's constitution and pass a series of laws that would require a two-thirds majority to be changed.




This includes cutting parliament to 199 from 386

  • Please, dear Euronews, when it is "s" in Hungarian, you pronounce it as an "sh" like in "sugar". When it is "sz" it is pronounced as a simple "s" like in "sad". It is exactly the opposite to Polish, which, by the way, is from an entirely different group of languages (Slavic) than Hungarian (Fino-Ugric). I remember you got it right for a while... I don't understand how you cannot get it right after a decade of correspondence from this country.

  • Go Hungary!!!

  • just live us alone hungary!

  • @FroggieGirl01 I have lost you entirely. I am not even Hungarian, and you seem to have made a (lame) idiot of yourself.

    And: oh yes. Anal?

  • @dohanyutca Oh dear you seriously think you're clever enough to teach anyone right? Who cares how he pronounces it, it's not their language how would they know. Everyone in hungary also pronounce USA as USA not as JÚÚ-ESZ-ÉÉJ (just so you can actually say it normally you know). If I really wanna be anal I could mention you're using way to many commas in your sentences as well as in English it's more common to use ' instead of ". Stop trying to prove how Hungarian you are, it's lame.

  • that's not fascism. that's jerkoffism.

  • 1956: SOVIET TANKS, 2012: WESTERN BANKS

  • Well done Hungary. I don't believe a word of what the EU and IMF friendly media says. Hungary said we control our own nation, cut these fiancial terrorists control of their media, and they took their fiscal policies and central bank back so it would serve the people for a change instead of the people serving the debt machine. Orban isn't backing down and he has hit the nail right on the head. WELL DONE.

  • @draszkow

    Are you being payed to say this nonsense? This is the best thing that happend to Hungary.

  • Respect for Hungary !
