Die Übersetzung der wichtigsten Passagen bei Tichy: 

Das steht im Gesetz der Regierung Orbán – jetzt erstmals in deutscher Sprache

 

 

 

 

Volksabstimmung in Aussicht

Am 21. Juli gab Ministerpräsident Viktor Orbán bekannt, dass die Regierung beabsichtigt, ein
Referendum über das Kinderschutzgesetz Ungarns abzuhalten. Dem Ministerpräsidenten
zufolge wurde Ungarn wegen seines Kinderschutzgesetzes von Brüssel aus attackiert:

„Brüssel fordert nun Änderungen des Bildungsgesetzes und der Kinderschutzbestimmungen.
Es beschwert sich, dass es bei uns unmöglich ist, was in Westeuropa bereits Normalität ist.
Dort gehen LGBTQ-Aktivisten in Kindergärten und Schulen und halten Sexualunterricht. Das
wollen sie auch hier, also drohen die Bürokraten in Brüssel uns damit, ein
Vertragsverletzungsverfahren gegen Ungarn einzuleiten – sie missbrauchen ihre Macht.“
Vorgesehen sei die kommende Volksabstimmung gegen Ende des Jahres oder Anfang 2022.

Die Fragen hierzu lauten wie folgt:
1. Unterstützen Sie, dass in Schulen ohne elterliche Zustimmung verschiedene sexuelle
Orientierungen gelehrt werden sollen?
2. Unterstützen Sie, dass man Geschlechtsumwandlungen für Minderjährige fördern darf?
3. Unterstützen Sie, dass Geschlechtsumwandlungen für Minderjährige erreichbar werden
sollen?
4. Unterstützen Sie, dass für Minderjährige solche medialen Inhalte, die die sexuelle
Entwicklung beeinflussen, uneingeschränkt erreichbar sein sollen?
5. Unterstützen Sie, dass Medieninhalte, die die Geschlechtsveränderung zum Gegenstand
haben, für Minderjährige zugänglich sein sollen?

Der Ministerpräsident rief dazu auf, die Fragen mit „Nein“ zu beantworten.

Schon 2016 lancierte die ungarische Regierung eine Volksabstimmung vor dem Hintergrund
des von der EU geplanten Verteilungsmechanismus für Migranten. Damals votierten mehr als
98% gegen eine Zwangsverteilung von Flüchtlingen nach Ungarn. Allerdings betrug die
Wahlbeteiligung nur 43,3 % (3,646 Millionen Stimmen), was unter dem erforderlichen
Quorum von 50 % lag. Der Großteil der ungarischen Opposition hatte zum Boykott des
Referendums aufgerufen.
