Budapest prepares for Pride but for many LGBT+ people it is a worrying time to be in Hungary

The video discusses the current state of pride celebrations in Hungary amidst new laws restricting LGBT representation, driven by Prime Minister Viktor Orban. These laws aim to protect family values but have sparked controversy and fear within the LGBT community. The government has launched a campaign against what it terms 'sexual propaganda,' leading to public discontent and personal stories of fear and uncertainty. Orban's political strategy appears to involve targeting the LGBT community to gain support in upcoming elections, despite criticism from EU leaders. The situation reflects broader cultural and political tensions in Hungary.
