Michael McGrath, the EU Commissioner for Democracy, emphasized that Hungary's new government should implement reforms for the benefit of its citizens, not just to access frozen EU funds. Prime Minister Péter Magyar is seeking to unlock €10 billion in recovery funds, which are blocked due to concerns over judicial independence and corruption from the previous administration. McGrath highlighted the importance of restoring rights for Hungarians and noted that while challenges exist, the EU is ready to support Hungary's transition to necessary reforms. The political landscape is shifting, with Magyar calling for resignations of Orbán-era officials and considering constitutional amendments to limit future prime ministers' terms.
