After the ban on the Rainbow Parade in Hungary, Foreign Minister Beate Meinl-Reisinger (Neos) was busy with her Hungarian counterpart Péter Szijjártó. “Especially in the light of the worrying increasing willingness to violence against gays and lesbians, I informed him about my concern about current legislation in Hungary with regard to the freedom of the LGBTIQ+ community,” said Meinl -Reisinger on X.
Basic and human rights are “the basis of our European Union” and the basis for the individual freedom of each person, explained Meinl-Reisinger, who also thanked Sijjártó for the “open conversation”.
For his part, Szijjártó said on Facebook that they were represented in terms of Pride Parade. The Hungarian news agency MTI reported that he had told his Austrian counterpart that the protection of children in Hungary had an absolute priority. “We do not want to meet the expectations of the governments of other countries, but the expectations of the Hungarian people.”
Prohibition decides Tuesday
The parliament in Budapest had banned meetings on Tuesday, such as the Pride Parade, in which people demonstrate for the rights of non -heterosexual life plans. Formally, a passage was included in the Meeting Act, which stipulates that meetings should not violate the Child Protection Act.
In the event that the Pride Parade is still held, there are high penal costs. The use of face recognition software must be able to identify participants.
For the right -wing conservative government under Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, homosexuality is considered “worrying” in terms of child protection. Since 2021, a regulation, children and adolescents known as the Child Protection Act forbid access to information about non -heterosexual life forms. Similar books, films and other media may therefore not be accessible to minors in Hungary.
Also discussed about Ukraine
According to Szijjártó, the two ministers from abroad also spoke about the war in Ukraine. The situation is unchanged, and despite repeated promise, the Ukrainian government refused to return the rights that was withdrawn in 2015 in 2015 in 2015, Sijjártó criticized on Facebook. “This is completely unacceptable and contradicts the common European rules and values.”
He has added a lot to appreciate, the willingness of Beate Meinl Reisinger to help in this matter. “As long as this sad situation persists, any progress in the membership discussions in Ukraine is excluded from the European Union,” he said.
