The pride of this year is characterized by a test of power between the right prime minister of the populist Viktor Orban and the liberal capital of Budapest. The police, controlled by the people of Orban, banned this event, because, in her opinion, this violates the recently changed law on the meeting. The law now allows us to ban rallies if they are directed against the “protection of children”.
Nevertheless, the mayor of Budapest Hergeli Karakonia announced the pride of this year by the event of the city of Budapest. This is not subject to the meeting on the meeting. Based on this, the parade cannot be prohibited, the point of view of the administration of the city of Budapest and the organizers of pride.
On Friday, Orban tried to dispel fears about violence in the police against participants, and at the same time announced the legal consequences. Participants in the event threaten a fine of up to 500 euros. The organizers of this event may face one flight. Correct groups also announced oncoming protests. It is assumed that the police will show as many participants as possible about the illegal rally from their point of view. Person recognition software can also be used.
However, it is expected that tens of thousands of participants will move. It was also announced that about 70 members of the EU, numerous diplomats and the EU Commissioner for equal opportunities, Haja Lahbib.
Glucksmann: EU should increase the pressure on Orbán
On the eve of the pride parade in Budapest, the French European European European Rafael Glouxmann asked the European commission and heads of the state and the EU Government to increase pressure on Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. Orban “realized that he could afford everything,” Gluxmann said on Saturday in Budapest.
Orban saw “that he can pass through us, and that in any case there will be no reaction, and that he will be forgiven every time, and the game in negotiations with him will begin everywhere,” Gluxmann said. At a certain moment, the “stop” should be said, Mep emphasized. He would like the European Commission and the EU heads and government leaders to “do everything to increase the pressure (…) and guarantee that the Orban government can no longer block or destroy European construction.”
Solidarity from the partner of the city of Frankfurt Am Main
The city of Frankfurt Am Main announced its support for the Hungarian Quirsk community on Saturday in the Budapest Pride. “We do not agree that the achievements of the last decades are returning to freedom, diversity and strange visibility,” said the city adviser Wolfgang Zifert. Ziphart is currently in the Hungarian capital at the invitation of the mayor of Budapest and the representative of the mayor Mike Joseph.
Frankfurt Am Main and Budapest have been uniting urban partnership since 1990. Other partner cities are also on the spot with official representatives, according to Zifert, the director of the city of Frankfurt Am Main.
“Our support is applied to all those who are ridiculously committed to these values, especially with the mayor of Budapest, which is open to Viktor Orban,” Zifiert added: “Providing the forbidden march of pride about the city event, which does not require permission, he established a strong sign.” Before the start, the organizers expected that the counter -demonization and attempts of the trial were performed by the right groups.
In parades of pride, people demonstrate the rights of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, trance and strange people (LGBT). Christopher -Stezd day will be held in Frankfurt this year from July 17 to 20. The event resembles the uprising of the homo- and transsexual community in the New York district Grinvich-Villid in the Bar Stonoll Bar Stonoll on Christopher Street, which began on June 28, 1969. Police checks, attacks and constant discrimination were repeated on the trigger.
