💨 Abstract
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban attempted to stop the annual Budapest Pride march, predicting legal consequences for participants. Yet, the march proceeded after the city's liberal mayor renamed it "Budapest Pride Freedom" to celebrate the withdrawal of Soviet troops. The event saw an unprecedented turnout of 100,000 to 200,000 people, drawing international attention and support, including from the EU Commission president.
