A month later, the Hungarian parliament targeted NGOs and rights groups by passing a package of legislation called the "Stop Soros" bill, which allows for the
imprisonment of anybody aiding undocumented migrants.
Petra Bard, an expert on EU constitutional law and EU criminal justice and visiting professor of CEU, said that Hungary's unwillingness to work with the university is an unprecedented attack the educational institutions in the EU even if it is not the first after Orban moved ban gender studies programmes earlier this month.
"There were also smaller universities that required accreditation and the government hasn't had a problem signing the necessary agreements, so make no mistake this is an attack on CEU," she said, adding that most programs including hers would be affected.
"Even if the agreement were signed it would have been a very hostile environment for the CEU in Hungary," she said.
