Hungary's parliament voted Monday evening to amend the constitution with a measure limiting the terms of prime ministers, the first major constitutional change since the new ruling party's electoral victory earlier this year. The bill was presented and approved in a single parliamentary session. As The Zioneer previously reported (Saturday, June 13), the same ruling party had earlier advanced a sweeping public broadcasting reform — part of a broader legislative overhaul following Prime Minister Péter Magyar's campaign platform. The term-limit amendment's exact duration and whether it applies retroactively to current officeholders remain unconfirmed pending full text publication.
