Hungary Government Clamps Down On Budapest Pride Parade

Pride flag raising to kick off Pride Month in Doylestown

The Hungarian government has announced measures to restrict the annual Budapest Pride parade, a tradition that has been ongoing for nearly three decades. The government's chief of staff, Gergely Gulyas, stated that the parade should not 'dominate public spaces' due to what they claim are 'child protection' concerns.

Gulyas revealed plans to amend the country's constitution, including redefining gender as 'biologically male or female' and emphasizing a child's right to physical, mental, and moral development above all else. He suggested that this year's Pride event should be held in a 'closed venue' rather than its usual route through central Budapest.
