"A new era has begun" is how some Hungarians are describing this year's Pride march, following 16 years of Viktor Orbán's government, during which the event was consistently restricted. France 24 correspondent Gulliver Cragg is in Budapest, where thousands are taking part in the parade despite scorching temperatures. The position of the newly elected Prime Minister, Péter Magyar, on LGBTQ+ rights remains ambiguous. He avoided the issue during the election campaign and is not attending today's Pride march. At the same time, he recently stated that "nobody should be stigmatised because of the way they love," leaving many uncertain about how his government will approach LGBTQ+ rights.
