The recent announcement highlights the commitment of Hungarian Prime Minister Magyar to adopt a more liberal approach regarding LGBTQ+ rights. His predecessor, Viktor Orbán, was known for harsh measures against these rights, culminating in the ban on the Pride parade in Budapest in 2025. However, the Mayor of Budapest, Gergely Karácsony, found a legal loophole and organized the parade last year, attracting over 100,000 participants, including European politicians. Although he was accused of violating the ban, the court suspended the proceedings. Recently, the European Court annulled the anti-LGBTQ decision of the Orbán government. Karácsony welcomed the return of the Pride parade, stating that it reflects the courage and culture of freedom in Hungary. Vula Tsetsi, co-chair of the European Green Party, stated that it is a signal of hope for democracy and fundamental rights in Hungary. The parade is scheduled for June 27.
