Amnesty International warns Hungary over rushed election of constitutional judge, Tisza majority to decide without consultation

Hungary’s parliament will elect a new Constitutional Court judge on Monday, just days after a constitutional amendment ended the term of Csaba Hende. Amnesty International Hungary says the one-week timeline sidesteps the 60-day period meant for broad consultations and echoes single-party selection practices previously seen under Viktor Orbán.
