Jobbik MP calls for list of Jews in Parliament
Jobbik MP Márton Gyöngyösi caused national and international outrage when he suggested compiling a list of Hungarian citizens of Jewish origin—particularly MPs and government members—on grounds of “national security.” Widely condemned as an explicitly antisemitic proposal, the speech triggered a rare cross-party protest of tens of thousands. Gyöngyösi’s later clarification did little to ease concerns about rising far-right antisemitism.
