State of emergency in Hungary may be extended by 180 days whenever from November
Change language:
The state of emergency in Hungary can be extended by up to 180 days from 1 November, according to an amendment to the law submitted to Parliament by Fidesz member Máté Kocsis on Tuesday.
According to the amendment, “the Government may, with effect from 1 November 2022, request the authorisation of Parliament to extend the state of emergency beyond 30 days for a maximum period of 180 days at a time, with the possibility of granting such authorisation more than once.”
The amendment allows the Parliament to extend the state of emergency again and again for (up to) 180 days “in view of the armed conflict and humanitarian disaster in Ukraine and in order to avert the consequences of such a situation in Hungary,” Telex reports.
State of war first declared on 24 May
Viktor Orbán announced on 24 May that a state of war would be declared from midnight on that day. Orbán explained this by saying that there was a war going on in the neighbourhood. A war “which no one can see the end of yet”. The Prime Minister said that room for manoeuvre and the ability to act immediately were needed.
This repetitious re-newing of increasing time frames of State Emergency’s – bit likened to the “quick fix” scenario- used by Governments, this “dictatorial” Government of Hungary experts at it – part of their mass PROPAGANDA package – who are in such an IMPLODING mess, but take the option, better to be seen doing something, rather than sitting back taking cover from mass artillery – being aimed at them – RIGHTFULLY.
Did anyone really expect any other decision?
Deeper into autocracy! 🙁
