Péter Magyar to End Orbán Era

Péter Magyar to End Orbán Era

Following a landslide victory for his center-right Tisza party, Magyar has called for a swift handover of power and urged the country's president to resign.

His campaign focused on the cost of living and anti-corruption measures, successfully uniting a broad coalition of voters against the Orbán establishment.

Magyar's first legislative priorities include reclaiming national assets and lifting a veto on a €90 billion EU loan to Ukraine.

The transition is being closely watched by European leaders, who view the result as a potential turning point for liberal democracy in the region.
