Péter Magyar unseats Viktor Orbán

Hungarian voters have delivered a crushing defeat to Viktor Orbán, ousting the populist leader after nearly two decades in power.

The challenger, Péter Magyar, secured a constitutional supermajority by capturing the support of rural voters who previously formed Orbán's political base.

Magyar has pledged a sweeping anti-corruption drive and a restoration of democratic standards to unblock frozen EU funds.

The result represents a significant setback for Orbán's international allies, including Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.
