Budapest – Tamás Sulyok has issued a serious and firm statement. In his Facebook post on Thursday, the President of the Republic warned that the planned removal of the heads of independent constitutional bodies, as well as the head of state himself, could not only violate fundamental constitutional principles, but could also trigger a constitutional crisis in Hungary with unpredictable consequences.
The political and legal weight of the announcement is well indicated by the fact that the highest-level legal forums of the international community immediately reacted to the developments. Tamás Sulyok emphasized: the high international attention surrounding the events is clearly demonstrated by the fact that the Council of Europe's constitutional advisory body, the Venice Commission has already indicated that it will investigate the case as part of an urgent procedure.
The Hungarian situation is under international scrutiny
According to the head of state, due to the escalation of the situation, international experts are not satisfied with long-distance data collection.
-
On-site inspection: The staff of the Venice Commission are ready to travel to Hungary immediately to personally and fully inform themselves about the situation.
-
Instant consultations: Tamás Sulyok highlighted that the Hungarian side will immediately begin official consultations and professional dialogue with the international body.
Why might fundamental constitutional principles be violated?
The rule of law and the democratic system are based on principle of separation of powers, as well as the stability guaranteed by independent constitutional offices spanning across cycles (such as the Constitutional Court, the President of the Republic, the State Audit Office or the heads of the court administration).

If the current political majority can directly and exceptionally intervene in the leadership of these institutions, it creates legal uncertainty. The involvement of the Venice Commission indicates that the legal basis of the planned steps and their compliance with democratic standards also raise serious concerns at the international level.
What to expect in the coming days?
The statement of the head of state and the accelerated procedure of the Venice Commission may open a new chapter in the domestic public law debates. The arrival of the international delegation and the outcome of the investigation may have a decisive impact on whether the planned institutional transformations or personnel changes can be implemented in their current form, or whether the government will be forced to back down in the face of international legal and diplomatic pressure.
