#StateCapture

The new Hungarian government is moving towards total state capture. Prime Minister Péter Magyar's most important win would be removing the President of Hungary with no justification whatsoever. That would then open the floodgates to capturing all other independent institutions https://t.co/9DBwubMXDe #Hungary #StateCapture #PoliticalCrisis #HU

Radek Vondráček (ANO) and Filip Turek (Motorists watching Babiš) today presented a law that 1) legalizes Babiš's conflict of interest. 2) ensures he receives entitlement grants worth a few billion annually even if he happens to be in a conflict of interest. (translated)

"The main goal is undoubtedly to adjust the law so that it meets the current Prime Minister Babiš's needs. We are observing another chapter of so-called state capture in the Czech Republic, that is, the takeover of the state through bending the laws to suit the ruling politicians," summarized the matter by head of TI @david_kotora.
