THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT OF HUNGARY CALLED IT A DAY: “LABOR SLAVERY” IN THE STATE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE CONSTITUTION

This has caused an eruption of protests among Hungarian citizens and trade unions, as well as among opposition parties, that demanded the abolition of these amendments. But this week the Hungarian Constitutional Court declared the bill in force.
