New justice minister to focus on Hungary’s sovereignty
Incoming Justice Minister Bence Tuzson has asked Prime Minister Viktor Orbán to remove European Union affairs from among the justice ministry’s responsibilities, adding that he planned to shape a “traditional ministry” focusing on the protection of legal sovereignty and the review of judicial practices.
Tuzson was nominated after Judit Varga resigned on Wednesday, saying she was going to focus on the European parliamentary elections.
Tuzson said Hungary’s sovereignty is the ministry’s focus as it had been “under attack” lately.
It is especially important that member states can keep their current competencies, and keep the EU a “united alliance of member states with equal rights” rather than a “European empire”, he said.
He said another important task of the ministry would be to review judicial practices to ensure they always served the interests of the people. Justice should be increasingly swift and effective while preserving its independence, so that judicial practices are clear for the public, he said. As minister, Tuzson said he would consult representatives of the judiciary and take legislative measures if necessary.

In a Democracy, the rule of law protects the RIGHTS of Citizens, maintains order, and LIMITS the power of Government.
All citizens are EQUAL under the law.
No one can be discriminated against on the basics of there race, religion, ethnic group or gender.
No one may be arrested, imprisoned, or exiled arbitrarily.
Mr Prime Minister – could you PLEASE explain to MILLIONS of Hungarians – European Union, and the Global DEMOCRATIC World, why under your watch, the “Creeds” under the Rule of Law in a Democracy, in Hungary are NOT practiced ???
Will the in-coming Justice Minister – Bence Tuszon – have the “spleen” and “backbone” – challenge Orban – on the “Creeds” of Rule of Law, and ILLIMINATE the Orban wrongful law(s) that he has WRITTEN into practice under Rule of Law in Hungary ???
Orban – Fidesz they FACTUALLY control the Judiciary in Hungary, which still from Brussels is seen as part of there opinion arising out and from within the European Union – rightfully, that Hungary no longer is a DEMOCRACY.
Justice Minister – Bence Tuszon on Rule of Law universally acknowledged and practiced in country’s Governed under DEMOCRACY, are you a BELIEVER or a “follower” of the Orban re-writes – that are not aligned to DEMOCRACY ???
WE watch – in reference to your appointment, what path you TAKE.
The fallacy of Brussels’ propaganda is never ending. Judges to the Supreme Court in the US are appointed by the ruling government. Presently, the US Supreme Court has a majority of Republican appointed Justices. It makes no difference who appoints the Justices. All Justices have to rule according to the Constitution of each country. Hungarian Justices rule according to the Hungarian Constitution and that is in line with their job description. Brussels should stop being more idiotic that it has to be.
Mr. Bence Tuzson, good luck and please ensure the future of Hungarian sovereignty.
mariavontheresa – laughable AGAIN, you continue to humiliate yourself, in the in-correctness of your comments.
It’s of KNOWN fact, that the Orban Government control the Judiciary of this country.
This FACT, is just not known in the European Union, but in the wider GLOBAL World, especially in country’s that are DEMOCRACIES.
The European Union, have made MAJOR announcements published this FACT, the wrongness of Orban – his Government, in there control and manipulation of the Judiciary in Hungary.
GET your FACTS correct – mariavontheresa and “clean up” the embarrassment associated with your comment(s) contribution and cease humiliating your-self further through your Membership of Fidesz.
