While I’m happy with this outcome, even if it’s only temporary, I disagree with calling it “Hungary’s push”. There are multiple countries supporting this initiative and phrases like this make it easy for them to wash their hands and push the whole responsibility on a country everyone is pissed at anyway.
We shouldn’t hide the fact there’s a growing interest in limiting human rights among EU countries but rather expose and scrutinize the bad actors instead. I don’t think that will stop any future attempts but it could hopefully slow them down.
Still, win is a win and every attempt that fails is a reason to celebrate.
