EU Court: Hungary's 'Stop Soros' NGO Transparency Law Illegal
Breitbart ^

Posted on 06/21/2020 12:44:51 PM PDT by ameribbean expat

The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has ruled that a law passed by the Hungarian government to make foreign donations to NGOs more transparent is against European Union laws. Ad

The ruling against the transparency law comes after the case was brought to the court by the European Commission after it had initially begun proceedings against Hungary.

The NGO law, which was passed in 2017, required NGOs that took 20,500 euros or more a year from overseas to register all foreign donations above 1,500 euros with the government, which shared the information online in order to make foreign funding of so-called “civil society” groups more transparent.

According to the ECJ, the NGO law is discriminatory and unjustifiably restricts both the NGOs and those who donate to them. The court cited the EU principle of the Free Movement of Capital as well as claiming the NGO law violated privacy and the right to respect for private life, Die Welt reports.

The EU is led by Satanists. The UN is led by Satanists. The American Deep State is led by Satanists. The Chicoms are Satanists. This is what conservative Christian America is up against in 2020!

Hungary: "So what? Go ahead Punks, make our day."

It's amusing to see a group of neo-Fascists (the real kind, state worshipping autocrats) behave as if they have the world by the balls, knowing that they'll soon discover they've only been fondling their own.

So would it make a difference if all funding, foreign or domestic was disclosed?

They will go after Poland next when Duda and the PiS wins re-election, after Duda came out against the LGBT gang.

I knew a few folks who were involved in the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. Not a single Pajama Boy among them. On the other hand, the EU bureaucracy is nothing but Pajama Boys.

It would be most effective to cap the judges.

The “Mad Hungarian” now works for either the St. Louis Cardinals or Fox Sports Midwest, haven’t figured that out yet but he’s still great and very much the gentleman.

People will laugh at you for saying such, but you are not far from the truth.

The Hungarians will be forced into compliance with economic pressure, by mass media, and by buying or supporting those forces in Hungary that are on board with what the EU wants.

The Hungarians are a true culture (i.e. they know who they are), but it will be interesting to see how long they hold out. Of course now the name calling will also begin. It will also be interesting to see how all those that disagree will be painted. LOL
