About
The Government of Hungary is the executive authority of Hungary, a parliamentary republic and member of the European Union. It is led by the Prime Minister and a cabinet accountable to the National Assembly, the country's unicameral parliament. The government conducts national policy across domestic and foreign affairs. In the area of justice and the rule of law, measures affecting the judiciary, media regulation, and civil society have been the subject of monitoring by EU institutions, proceedings before the Court of Justice of the European Union, and conditionality mechanisms linking EU funds to rule-of-law standards. These developments are documented in EU reports and court records, while their interpretation differs among governments, institutions, and observers.
