The Hungarian parliament continued on Tuesday with the election of new constitutional judges, with Fidesz MPs leaving the session. Tisza party representatives then criticized the government's actions and accused Fidesz of trying to take control of the Constitutional Court. HVG ↗

Fidesz parliamentary group leader János Bóka stated that his party is not only a political opposition, but also an opposition to a system he said is based on arbitrariness. He also claimed that the Tisza party is attempting to seize control of the Constitutional Court. Telex ↗

Tisza party leader Péter Magyar reacted dismissively to his speech. He called on Bóka to stop representing the interests of the system, in his view, and start representing voters instead. Magyar also stated that he would not respond to accusations published through short videos. Telex ↗

Parliament also approved changes concerning the functioning of the Constitutional Court and the legal regulation of court proceedings. MPs also addressed the disclosure of secret service files from the period of the previous regime and an amendment to the law on vocational education.

Former opposition leader Péter Márki-Zay stated that, in his view, Fidesz is politically dead. He also warned that Péter Magyar, should he gain extensive power, will face the temptation to concentrate decision-making in his own hands. svet.sme.sk ↗

On Tuesday, Magyar did not deliver a speech before the parliamentary session for the first time. He cited as the reason the topic of child abuse and starvation, which he had spoken about the day before.
