At the end of July Viktor Orbán announced that he would nominate again Olivér Várhelyi, the former Commissioner for Neighbourhood and Enlargement Policy. Hungary would retain the position in charge of enlargement policy in the new Commission, but this ambition may be thwarted. Currently it seems that the majority of Member States and the EP are reluctant to give Hungary any strong commissioner position, and many predict that Várhelyi will be given a hard time during his parliamentary committee hearing.

One of the most anticipated events of the Paris Olympics concluded in the expected victory of the masculine looking boxer Imane Khelif. Her opponent, Hungarian Luca Hámori stood her ground and fought until the last moment of the bout.

The Khelif controversy has raised broader questions about fairness in sports and the potential impact of gender identity policies on competition. As Hungarian Hámori prepares to face Khelif, the debate over the inclusion of transgender and intersex athletes in sports continues to be a contentious and evolving issue.
