The decision to ban the LGBT+ parade in Pecs was made in the context of new laws adopted by Viktor Orban's government, which aim to restrict gatherings that promote homosexuality. The organizers, the 'Diverse Youth Network' association, criticized this measure, considering that it severely affects the LGBT+ community. Additionally, the ban comes after the 'Budapest Pride' parade took place despite a similar ban, demonstrating ongoing tension between authorities and supporters of LGBT+ rights.
