Hungary does it start?
One swallow does not make a summer, but a European state, not children, who gets a Constitution that respects and supports euro is the European Charter of fundamental rights, whether the Universal Declaration of human rights, is an example to follow.
On Monday April 18, 2011, in accordance with the commitments of Prime Minister Viktor Orban, when in April 2010 surprisingly won political elections (two thirds of the seats in the Chamber of Deputies) the Hungarian Constitution was amended in the spirit and letter. The 1990 text, quickly adopted the Berlin Wall fell di, is considered too liberal and still characterized by garbage.
Power was divided between the three main political parties
Fidesz, center-right party, whose representatives in the European Parliament are part of the European People's Party.
The Socialist Party, completely discredited after the disastrous administration of Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsany, who had lied about the deficit of the balance of the State entity, a situation which in 2008 had led him to ask the International Monetary Fund aid 20 million to save the country from bankruptcy.
The party Jobbik, extreme right, which is aimed at upholding the values \u200b\u200band identity in Hungary.
The new constitution proposed by the Premier and the Fidesz was adopted with 262 votes to 44 with one abstention. The text was approved by the President of the Republic of Hungary, Pal Schmitt, on 25 April and will enter into force on January 1, 2012. During the debate in the classroom opposition express no intervention. What is not so far prevented him from sustaining this fundamental new law opponents.
What are the changes to the Constitution?:
1 - The first refers to the Christian roots of Hungary. The Preamble says, in fact, that "The Constitution is part of the continuity of the Holy Crown" and recalls "the roll of Christianity" into "ancient history."
One wonders negative reactions to this text, since at the time of drafting the Constitutional Treaty of the European Union, all member countries, adopted the reference to our Christian heritage, including France. The European petition, sponsored by the Fondation de Service Politique obtained with a MEP in 2004, 1.4 million signatures and was sustained over 60 associations representing 50 million adherents. A first in European history. This petition was signed by Commission requests, but the European Commission is not worthy follow it up as it should be generally when the requests are recorded.
The reference to Christian roots is not a matter of opinion, but a historical truth. It must be remembered that the Hungarian nation was organized from the baptism of St. Stephen, crowned king of Hungary, to the point where the crown stops stops who also power. Is that the reason for which the Crown of St. Stephen is now in the Hungarian Parliament, which gives them the legitimacy to make laws.
2 - The second amendment refers to the union between two people: "The Constitution protect the institution of marriage, seen as the natural union between a man and a woman and as the foundation of the family. "
This reference rebuke, in spirit, the universal declaration of human rights that, despite the pressures to enter the union between two persons of the same sex remains a reference text to all States. The new Hungarian Constitution does not call into question the union between same sex and not considered equivalent to marriage.
3 - The third amendment concerns the life of all human beings before birth: "From the moment of conception, life merita be protected as a fundamental human right "and" the life and dignity are inviolable ", returning in a sense the first article of the European Charter of Fundamental Rights:" Human dignity is inviolable. She should be respected and protected. "
Some have been outraged by this return to moral order. Should we conclude that the human order is an order amoral?, "The new Hungarian Constitution is euro compliant? opponents wonder. If it were not, then I would say that all the texts in question would be a dead letter, considered the European Union was built on respect for human rights whose universality is expressed in the Declaration of human rights in 1948, recognized as the common heritage of mankind, and not abstract and subjective rights asserted without reference to a common heritage.
is true, the decision belongs to the legislators. But they vote on our behalf. Silence on our part would be an act of irresponsibility. The laws concern us all. It is our duty to tell the congressmen and senators to respect our principles. Elizabeth Montfort
