Hungary walks back controversial laws after EU court rulings

BUDAPEST, Hungary  Hungary’s government is walking back two controversial pieces of legislation that targeted foreign universities and civil society groups after they were struck down by the European Union’s top court. Yet some affected groups say the changes don’t go far enough in restoring their full rights. A draft bill submitted to Hungary’s parliament this week would amend a 2017 law on higher education which effectively forced one of the country’s top schools, Central European University (CEU), to leave the country. In a ruling last year, the European Court of Justice found the legislation was incompatible with EU law.
