BRUSSELS - The European Parliament’s main center-right grouping voted on Wednesday to suspend Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s ruling Fidesz Party until further notice amid concerns that it has violated EU principles on the rule of law.
“The suspension entails: no attendance at any party meeting; no voting rights; no right to propose candidates for posts,” EPP president Joseph Daul said in a tweet. According to a document seen by Reuters, the evaluation would be made by a committee chaired by former European Council head Herman Van Rompuy.
Orban’s chief of staff signaled that Fidesz would quit the EPP rather than see its membership suspended, saying it was a question of national “dignity”.
