Hungarian President Tamás Sólyom's term ends with new amendment
An official statement from the Hungarian presidency announced that President Tamas Solyok has signed a constitutional amendment ending his presidential term. This follows the parliament's approval of reforms granting Prime Minister Peter Major broad powers to reshape state institutions, including setting the number of parliamentary seats, appointing judges, and dismissing the president. These amendments are part of efforts to limit the influence of former Prime Minister Viktor Orban. The vote saw 139 MPs in favor, with six abstentions. The reforms also include changing the retirement age for judges and granting the parliamentary president temporary powers in case of a presidential vacancy. The President of Hungary is elected by the parliament for a five-year term.
