lpv:translated text	"Hungary is currently undergoing major social and political upheavals. The new Hungarian constitution, apart from providing a good advertisement for the Apple company (since part of it was reportedly written on Apple’s top-selling tablet), has also caused many protests in the country and a wave of displeasure in Brussels. The contentious laws in the new Hungarian constitution relate, for example, to Hungarian central bank independence, the retirement of judges, data protection office independence and the controversial media law. The developments in Hungary are, unfortunately, highly disappointing. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán shuttles between Budapest and Brussels, where he says something different every time. This irresponsible conduct on the part of the Hungarian Government resulted in the Commission’s monthly ultimatum to amend the disputed laws. The response to the criticism was quick, taking the form of an absurd allegation of some sort of social-liberal democratic plot. It seems that Viktor Orbán does not want to acknowledge that he is mostly harming his own citizens through his efforts to concentrate as much power as possible in the hands of the prime minister. Our main task is to defend the interests of EU citizens – and that includes the citizens of Hungary. I therefore consider the situation to be very serious and in need of close monitoring."@en1
