Official: State of emergency extended by another half a year in Hungary

The state of emergency is once again extended by half a year in Hungary. This means that the government has the right to rule by decree. The justification is that the war is not yet over in the neighbouring country. The special situation will certainly last until November.

The government has extended the state of emergency imposed due to the war in the neighbouring country for another six months, until 25 November 2023, according to the latest Hungarian Gazette.

According to the text of the decree, in order to avert a humanitarian disaster and because of the war itself, Parliament authorised the government to extend the state of emergency for a further 180 days, i.e. for half a year.

Therefore, there will be a government by decree in Hungary at least until the end of November. The text of the decree was signed by President of the Republic Katalin Novák and János Latorcai, Vice-President of the National Assembly.

    Our Politicians have been finding it impossible to rule with parliamentary scrutiny since COVID. All in the name of better, more efficient decision making. So where are the results? Achievements above and beyond what any other country in the EU and greater Europe is able to – without rule by decree? Any?

    Our Politicians have been structurally underachieving, unfortunately. And then absolving themselves – excuses, excuses and more excuses. Oh – and please – no “we are in a structurally worse starting position” – any risks could and should have been flagged and addressed since 2010. Can’t blame the Leftist Elites.

    Hungary, the only country in Europe ruled by decree. Why is it that only Hungary needs to be ruled by decree? I guess Hungary is the only country living in a constant emergency.

    Orban has lead Hungary to a position that it could be argued is PERILOUS.
    This decision just adds to the cataclysmic destruction, the collapse of the major areas of componentry that is the “engine room” of the Hungarian economy.
    Orban and his Government – the BLAMERS – putting blame on “all and sundry” for the capitulation, the on-going broadsheet collapse of Hungary.
    Orban – he DEEPENS the BLACK Hole Debt of Hungary that its Nadir – “plunges” on.
    Europe – the World, those country’s governed under DEMOCRACY – watching Orban causing the destruction and havoc, sending Hungary into a position, as a country, that it is being spoken are INSOLVENT, just APPALLING.

    Orban – has “plunged” Hungary to such a point/position – whatever he tries to STABELIZE – the Hungarian Economy is IMPOSSIBLE.

    Nothing is going to get CHEAPER in Hungary and we the citizens of Hungary, will see DARKER Days ahead sooner than later.

    The BLAMERS – blame the left – blame the European Union and we KNOW their is MORE the BLAMERS throw blame against – which incorporates in their GAME of Blame – PROPAGANDA – that consists of Falseness and Lies – just LAUGHABLE.

    Orban – 13 years in power – his second” coming” or try as a Prime Minister – what will his LEGACY to Hungary be ???
    It Scares & Petrifies me.

    FMD! What a load of manure!

    This “special situation” will surely not end in November.

    Methinks this Government will continue to rule by decree well after November. So, let’s just cut the crap and tell us, the people, that a State of Emergency (rule by decree) will continue as long as this Government is in power.

    War or no war, from now on, he will always find an excuse to call a State of Emergency.

    How many other countries (bordering Ukraine) have rule by decree in effect?

    To the best of my knowledge, we elected a Government to govern, we did not elect VO to be an autocrat.
