Zoltan Kovacs - Hungarian Minister of State for Government Communication

Hungary's centre-right government has galvanized critics at home and abroad with its new controversial constitution.

There have been mass protests in the country, opposition politicians have chained themselves to gates outside public buildings, and the prime minister, Viktor Orban, has been dubbed Viktator.

The EU, IMF and the US have rebuked the Hungarian government over its changes to election rules, the central bank and the judiciary, warning they will erode democracy and entrench one-party rule.

Zeinab Badawi speaks to Hungary's Government Communication Minister, Zoltán Kovács.

His government says the reforms are necessary to modernise the Hungarian state.

But with the country badly in need of a $20bn international bailout - is it about to perform a U-turn and back down?
