Hungary's Orban plans 'transparency law' to muzzle critics - DW - 05/17/2025

_{//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. parency-law-to-muzzle-critics-dw-05-17-2025.html}
^{Published in Politics and Government on Saturday, May 17th 2025 at 7:20 GMT by dw}

The ruling Fidesz party, led by Prime Minister Viktor Orban, has proposed a law that could be used to ban political parties and media outlets.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is pushing for a new "transparency law" aimed at NGOs and individuals receiving foreign funding, which critics argue is designed to silence dissent ahead of the European Parliament elections. The proposed legislation would require organizations and individuals to declare foreign funding publicly, with potential fines for non-compliance. This move is seen as an attempt to label critics as foreign agents, similar to laws in Russia and Georgia, and comes amidst Orban's ongoing conflicts with the EU over rule of law and democratic standards. Critics, including opposition parties and civil society groups, fear this law will further erode democratic freedoms in Hungary, drawing comparisons to tactics used by authoritarian regimes.
