Several thousand protesters blocked a major thoroughfare in the center of Hungary's capital on Tuesday in opposition to a recent law that effectively bans LGBTQ+ Pride events and restricts Hungarians' right to assembly.
The demonstration was the second within a week since Hungary's ruling Fidesz party used its two-thirds parliamentary majority last Tuesday to fast-track the law, seen by critics as the government's latest crackdown on the rights of the country's LGBTQ+ community.
