This is the best summary I could come up with:

It’s the latest salvo in a yearslong standoff between the Parliament — which successfully triggered a similar and still ongoing procedure in 2018 — and Hungary’s self-styled “illiberal” leader Viktor Orbán who is accused of riding roughshod over democratic values and the independence of the judicial system, and who has held up fresh EU funding for war-hit Ukraine.

Hungarian liberal lawmaker Katalin Cseh said in a statement: “This House shows that we are serious when it comes to defending the rule of law in our Union and that we are not afraid of Prime Minister Orbán’s blackmailing attempts.

MEPs also demanded exploring the possibility of taking the EU’s executive to the Court of Justice of the European Union outraged at its decision to unfreeze some €10 billion for Hungary.

Senior liberal lawmaker Guy Verhofstadt launched an excoriating attack on von der Leyen during this week’s debate.

But the center-right EPP group threatened to blow up the entire resolution if the motion of censure passed, and it ultimately failed by a large margin.

A bid from the far left to suspend Hungary’s presidency of the rotating Council of the EU — which will span July to December this year — also failed.
