The European Union has launched a legal action against Hungary in a deliberate swipe at a country that stands accused by many in Brussels of backsliding on its commitments to democracy.
Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Hungary is ripe for constitutional reform to adopt a modified semi-presidential system. The president should be limited to one term of 5 years, and not permitted to run again for 6 years afterwards. A law that is not backed by penalties is not a law, and a constitution that does not countenance resistance is not a constitution. When the actions of a president are unconstitutional, the people should exercise their right to resist. For more see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
