The European Commission has decided to file a lawsuit against Hungary.

The European Commission has decided to refer Hungary's case to court because it believes that its national law on "Protection of Sovereignty" violates EU law, MIA "Rossiya Segodnya"quotes the European Commission's statement.
Earlier, the EC expressed dissatisfaction with this law and demanded an explanation from Budapest.
The essence of this document, adopted by the Hungarian parliament in December last year, is that a special body is being established in the country.
