Orban Defeated in Hungarian Election
Peter Magyar, a former Orban insider turned rival, vowed to root out corruption and restore Hungary's friendly relationship with the European Union.
Despite massive ideological support from the Trump administration, Orban's campaign failed to overcome voter discontent with economic mismanagement.
The incoming government is expected to take power in early May and has already signaled a desire to join the Eurozone.
This historic transition has ignited a rally in Hungary's bond market as investors bet on a more stable and pro-Western policy direction.
