The Prime Minister of Hungary, Péter Magyar, sparked an institutional scandal after threatening to remove the country's main authorities if they don't resign before May 31.
The maneuver is interpreted as a direct advance of the European Union's agenda on Hungary, in an attempt to dismantle the institutional scheme inherited from Viktor Orbán.
An unprecedented Magyar political purge
was explicit. It demanded the resignation of the country's president, the head of the Supreme Court, the attorney general and other key authorities
.He warned that if they don't resign voluntarily, they will be forcibly removed from the new government.
The message makes clear one intention: to replace the entire institutional structure that does not respond to its political line
.Brussels advances over Hungary
The Magyar tour is seen as a victory for Brussels. For years, the European Union clashed with Orbán over his sovereignty stance
.Now, with aligned leadership, the European bloc is gaining room to directly influence Hungarian domestic politics.
The pressure to displace figures close to the previous government reinforces that reading.
Direct attack on judicial independence
Among the charges mentioned are those most responsible for the judicial system
