Civil Society Organisations across Europe join in a common statement in solidarity with people in

Hungary

Statement to Hungarian people and civil society organisations – we stand in solidarity with you!

We, representatives of European civil society, hereby express our solidarity with the Hungarian NGOs

who were most recently targeted by the bill on the “transparency of organisations receiving foreign

funds”. At the same time we wish to express our deepest support for the people who have taken the

streets of Budapest to protest against this renewed attack on basic freedoms in Hungary.

The legislative proposal that was tabled in the Hungarian parliament on 7 April would force NGOs

receiving more than € 24,000 per year from outside Hungary to register as “civic organisations

receiving foreign funds”. This includes funding from EU sources not managed by a Hungarian

institution. This would effectively stigmatise any organisation that receives such funding.

The current bill is not an isolated occurrence. It is part of a wider governmental effort aimed at

undermining the credibility of civil society in Hungary. Here, we specifically refer to the recently

launched national consultation ‘Let’s stop Brussels’. The questionnaire accuses international NGOs

operating in Hungary of interfering “in internal affairs […] in a non-transparent way” and of inciting

“illegal immigrants […] to commit illegal acts”.

The current legislation regulating civil society organisations already provides sufficient mechanisms

for guaranteeing that these organisations conduct their work in a transparent, lawful and

accountable manner. If accepted in its current form, the new bill tabled by the government would be

unprecedented in a European Union member state. It would also severely constrain the space of

action of independent civil society organisations at a time when other checks and balances have

been significantly weakened in Hungary.

Civil Society Organisations should have the same right to operate freely and independently in

fundraising and projects as prescribed in International Human rights law and also in line with article

11 of the EU Treaties.

Based on these concerns, we call on the Hungarian government to withdraw the bill. Rather than

stigmatising NGOs with an unnecessary and harmful piece of legislation, we urge Hungary’s leaders

to support NGOs which work for the well-being of society.

On a European level we join our forces to raise awareness about the situation to the highest political

level and call for immediate action:

on the European Parliament to adopt a resolution urging the Hungarian Government to

withdraw the bill on NGOs following its debate on the situation in Hungary on 26 April,

condemning firmly this law and demanding to withdraw it.

on the European Commission to use as announced by the College of Commissioners all

instruments at their disposal to uphold EU values as enshrined in article 2 of the EU treaties.

Page 2: we stand in solidarity with you! - eesc.europa.eu · As. Filiala Sfantul Stefan -Barlad Romania Asociatia ARIN Romania Asociatia ASCED Romania Asociatia Bunul Samaritean Romania Asociatia

on the European Council to engage with concrete steps by similarly applying pressure on the

Hungarian government.

on all EU institutions to adopt a consistent and systematic monitoring of the state of

fundamental rights and democratic values in EU member States in a period when these rights

are being undermined by several governments. This can only be achieved through an

inclusive and transparent process and with the full involvement of civil society organisations

and the citizens they represent.

We stand in solidarity with you – civil society actors and human rights defenders in Hungary and

elsewhere. The further shrinking of civic space in Europe can no longer be tolerated.

Together, we will work to create a Europe that truly respects human dignity, freedom, democracy,

equality, the rule of law, and human rights, including the rights of persons belonging to minorities in

a society in which pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance, justice, solidarity and equality between

women and men prevail.
