Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Maygar has announced plans to amend a law that bans same-sex couples from adopting children. This law was approved in 2020 under the previous government led by Viktor Orbán. Maygar's government intends to scrap the effective adoption ban, which was part of a broader anti-LGBTQ crackdown.

The previous government faced criticism for its laws, including those banning Pride events. Maygar's announcement comes after he ousted Orbán in Hungary's elections in April. Further details on the amendment plans are available from the source, including the context of the law and its impact on the LGBTQ community.
