"EU Parliament's Showdown with Hungary: Rule-of-Law Clash and LGBTQ+ Policies"

TL;DR Summary
The European Parliament has voted in favor of a nonbinding resolution calling on EU countries to explore the possibility of stripping Hungary of its EU voting rights due to concerns over the country's commitment to EU values and the rule of law. This move is the latest development in a long-standing clash between the Parliament and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. The resolution also demands an examination of the legality of the European Commission's decision to unfreeze funds for Hungary, and comes ahead of an EU leaders' summit where the issue is expected to be discussed.
