BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Thousands of people protested in Budapest on Tuesday against a new law that aims to ban the annual Pride march by LGBTQ+ communities and allows the use of facial recognition software to identify organizers and attendees.
Hungary's parliament passed a law proposed by ruling Fidesz party lawmakers last week to ban the Pride march on the grounds that it could be harmful to children.
