Prime Minister Peter Magyar announced the launch of a far-reaching "purge operation" in Parliament on Monday, declaring a mission to "free Hungary" from what called a "mafia" that operated under the government of Viktor Orban.
Hungary's government will initiate the removal of President Tamas Sulyok, Prime Minister Peter Magyar said in parliament on Monday.
Judges will have a greater role in deciding who leads the Kuria, Hungary's supreme court, and the National Judicial Office (OBH), the prime minister said on Monday.
President Tamas Sulyok told Brussels-based news outlet Politico in an interview on Saturday that he would fight to stay in office, resorting to a series of legal manoeuvres, and accused Prime Minister Peter Magyar of plotting a takeover of state institutions that would give him a more absolute grip on power than former Prime Minister Viktor Orban had.
