Fidesz proposal on suspension of Hungarian citizenship submitted to Parliament 😔

Fidesz MP János Halász proposed a law to amend Hungarian citizenship laws, allowing for the temporary suspension of citizenship for dual citizens deemed a threat to public order or national security. The suspension can last up to ten years and requires a government decree. The proposal aims to enhance national sovereignty and aligns with practices in other countries. Gergely Gulyás, Minister of the Prime Minister's Office, discussed the potential for expulsion of dual citizens, emphasizing that Hungarian citizens cannot be expelled without becoming stateless. The proposal introduces a new legal feature in Hungary, contrasting with existing protections under the Fundamental Law.
