On Friday morning, NGOs protested against a controversial 'transparency' bill in Hungary by hanging a banner at Buda Castle Tunnel. The bill, proposed by a Fidesz lawmaker, would empower the government to label and penalize organizations deemed harmful to Hungary's interests. Amnesty International Hungary's director and Ökotárs Foundation's director criticized the bill as oppressive. Opposition party Momentum protested by vandalizing the Sovereignty Protection Office and held a demonstration. The European Commission expressed concern over the bill, emphasizing support for civil society. Further protests are planned.
