Hungarian Parliament again extends the state of emergency

Did you know? Only three countries in Europe have a state of emergency, Ukraine, Russia and Hungary:

Parliament voted on Monday to empower the government to prolong by 180 days the state of emergency in connection with the war in Ukraine.

The motion passed with 130 votes in favour, while 49 MPs voted against changing the law on rules to be applied in case of war in a neighbouring country as well as in the case of humanitarian disasters.
According to the law, an extended state of emergency is needed to handle the humanitarian catastrophe caused by the Ukraine war and tackle the economic consequences.
