Government of Hungary

The Prime Minister (miniszterelnök) is elected by the National Assembly and serves as the head of government and exercises executive power.

Cabinet nominees must appear before consultative open hearings before one or more parliamentary committees, survive a vote in the National Assembly, and be formally approved by the President.

Credible sources, including Freedom House[5] and the European Parliament,[6] claim Hungary is no longer a democratic country.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban and his leading politicians openly use racist arguments,[7] making the normalization of right-wing extremism a valid concern in case of Hungary.

[8] Voicing hate speech or discriminatory language against marginalized groups, including but not limited to those based on race, religion, or sexual orientation, especially when presented in a humorous context, is often socially accepted in Hungary.
