Thousands of Ukrainian refugees could be forced on to the streets or back to Ukraine.

A new law has come into force in Hungary which threatens to push thousands of Ukrainian refugees on to the streets or back to Ukraine.

The regulation restricts state support for Ukrainians to those who come from parts of Ukraine directly affected by the fighting caused by Russia’s invasion.

    To suspend Hungary (your first point) legally requires unanimity of all EU countries aside from the one to be censured. (Article7)

    Unfortunately Slovakia has recently elected a pro putin govt who will now block any attempt to deal with Orban.

    There was a short window between the end of the Polish far right PiS being in power and Slovakia changing leadership when it could have been done. Unsurprisingly Orban was very compliant during that period and as soon as he regained an ally is back to his old tricks.

    There is no legal way to do what you suggest

    Edit, missed a word
