Hungary's parliament voted to impose an eight-year limit on prime ministers, barring Orbán from returning.

The amendment explicitly bars former Prime Minister Viktor Orban from returning to office, as he has already served more than eight years.
The message adds that the measure was pushed by Prime Minister Péter Magyar and now awaits presidential approval, and specifies the limit is eight years.
