The EU may change its previous cautious approach towards Hungary following the parliamentary elections, especially if Orbán's party is victorious.
The European Union has maintained a cautious stance towards Hungary, avoiding serious confrontations despite widespread concerns over the country’s adherence to democratic principles under Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. However, this approach may shift significantly after the upcoming parliamentary elections, particularly if Orbán's party secures a victory. Currently, there has been no consensus among EU member states to invoke Article 7 of the Treaty on European Union against Hungary, which could lead to sanctions, highlighting the complexity of intra-EU politics.
