Orbán ousted in Hungarian landslide
In a historic political earthquake, Hungarian voters turned out in record numbers to oust long-serving Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
Péter Magyar, a former government insider turned critic, led his Tisza party to a decisive win that promises to restore the rule of law and rebuild ties with the European Union.
Orbán conceded defeat on Sunday night, describing the result as painful but unambiguous.
The victory is expected to have significant repercussions for global far-right movements and Hungary's relationship with Russia.
