Tens of thousands to attend Budapest Pride in defiance of Orban’s ban in Hungary

Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ruling coalition amended laws and the constitution earlier this year to prohibit the annual celebration, justifying his years-long clampdown on LGBTQ rights on “child protection” grounds.
