Viktor Orbán ousted in Hungarian landslide
In a historic political upheaval, Péter Magyar has unseated long-serving nationalist leader Viktor Orbán in the Hungarian parliamentary elections.
The upstart Tisza party won over 50% of the vote, a result that has triggered jubilant celebrations across Budapest and been hailed by EU leaders as a 'return to Europe.' Magyar has pledged to dismantle the illiberal system built by Orbán, focus on anti-corruption measures, and restore the rule of law to unlock frozen EU funds.
The loss is viewed as a significant blow to Orbán's international allies, including Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump.
