teleSUR English

Over 200,000 Hungarians and allies flooded the streets of Budapest for the 30th annual Pride march, openly defying Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s authoritarian ban in one of the largest protests against his regime. What began as a celebration of LGBTQ+ rights exploded into a seismic act of resistance against ultra-conservative repression, corruption, and the erosion of democracy.  #BudapestPride #DefyOrban #Hungary #LGBTQRights #OrbanRegime #EuropeanResistance #GlobalSolidarity #TelesurEnglish #DictatorshipFall #RainbowRevolution  These and more stories now! 🌐Join teleSUR's community and be part of a space where your ideas matter.  https://chat.whatsapp.com/KLABTE41aSj3ioYabXQQ6K 🗣 Don't be left behind, join teleSUR's Channel https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va98Z437Noa2tjytCt1N Web💬 https://www.telesurenglish.net/ X🧶 https://twitter.com/telesurenglish Instagram 📸 https://www.instagram.com/telesurenglish/?hl=es Facebook 📱 https://www.facebook.com/teleSUREnglishOfficial Youtube ⏯ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmuTmpLY35O3csvhyA6vrkg Tiktok👌🏼 https://www.tiktok.com/@telesurenglish?_t=8hMLCY0a6z7&_r=1
