On 12 April 2026, Hungarians will head to the polls in what many have called the most consequential parliamentary election in the EU this year. The result — whatever form it takes — raises urgent questions about the future of the rule of law, democratic institutions, and Hungary's place within the European Union.
Join re:constitution and Democracy Reporting International for a timely webinar bringing together experts to unpack the implications of the vote. Whether the election brings continuity or change, the path ahead is complex.
We will examine what the result means for judicial independence, media freedom, and Hungary's ongoing Article 7 procedure; what a new or returning government would need to do — and how much it realistically can do — to uphold the rule of law and democratic standards; and what the EU and international community should expect in the months ahead.
