EU parliament groups call for sanctions against Hungary (euobserver): "The Green, Socialist and Liberal groups in the European Parliament on Thursday called on the EU to impose sanctions on Hungary following the conservative government's "dangerous slide towards an authoritarian regime" - according the Greens. Hungary is under attack for restricting media freedom and the independence of its central bank."
