Péter Magyar unseats Viktor Orbán

In a seismic shift for European politics, Péter Magyar has defeated long-standing Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in Hungary's parliamentary elections.

Magyar's Tisza party secured a landslide victory, promising to restore the rule of law and mend strained ties with the European Union.

The defeat of the Kremlin-aligned Orbán is seen as a major blow to right-wing populism across the continent.

Magyar has pledged to review Russian energy contracts and end the systemic corruption that characterized the previous administration.
