FYI president in many eastern European countries is just a ceremonial figure without much actual power. It’s kind of like the king in UK.
The real power is in the hands of the government and its prime minister.
So when the article mentions that the president signed the law, he effectively does not really have any options not to sign it once it was approved by parliament. Outside of very specific cases. For example if he had a good reason to suspect the law is unconstitutional he could have the constitutional court decide whether it’s okay. And if it is, he’d have to sign it.
