Hungary’s parliament has passed an amendment to the constitution, allowing the government to ban public events organised by LGBTQ communities.

The amendment, which required a two-thirds majority, was passed with 140 votes in favour and 21 against.

It was proposed by the Prime Minister Viktor Orbán-led Fidesz-KDNP coalition.


Opposition politicians and protesters attempted to barricade an entrance to a parliamentary garage ahead of the vote on Monday.

The protesters tied themselves with zip ties and had to be physically removed by the police.

The amendment stipulates that children’s rights to moral, physical and spiritual development supersede any other right, apart from the right to life—including the right to peaceful assembly.

The amendment codifies a law fast-tracked through parliament in March that bans public events organised by LGBTQ communities.

This includes the Pride event held in Budapest, which annually attracts thousands.
