Hungary's Orban calls referendum on LGBTQ law

Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban said Wednesday that a referendum would be held to gauge domestic support for a controversial LGBTQ law, after the European Commission launched legal action against Budapest over the measure.

"Brussels has clearly attacked Hungary in recent weeks regarding the law", Orban said in a video posted on his Facebook page, referring to the legislation that bans the "promotion" of homosexuality among minors.
