The conservatives of incoming chancellor Friedrich Merz and their likely center-left coalition partner, the Social Democratic Party (SPD), have agreed to demand the bloc withhold funds and suspend voting rights from countries that violate key principles such as the rule of law, according to a draft coalition agreement seen by POLITICO.

While Hungary wasn’t mentioned by name, the draft agreement is clearly referring to the EU’s worst offender, which for years has been accused of taking a wrecking ball to democratic norms, curtailing the freedom of the press and restricting the independence of judges.

    yeah, it’s the hungarian word for the hungarian language. it could be one of those situations where the actual meaning is “the language” or something, hungarian is a very unique language.

          It means both as in both Hungarian the nationality and Hungarian the language?

          Like in English: “The English speak English”.
