Hungary

Hungary is navigating a significant political transition as the Tisza Party, led by Prime Minister Péter Magyar, now holds a supermajority in the National Assembly, marking the end of the 16-year Orbán era. Former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, now the leader of the opposition Fidesz party, delivered a highly anticipated speech at Tusványos, where he characterized the situation as the "dismantling of the rule of law" and a "crime," asserting that a "resistance will grow day by day." His address and Fidesz's new role as opposition are central to the national political discourse.

Discussions within Fidesz are ongoing regarding their future and strategy, with some expressing concerns about democracy and the party's new position as an opposition force seeking foreign assistance. Other political figures, such as Orbán Balázs, made statements at Tusványos, while Magyar Péter, the current Prime Minister, also commented ahead of Orbán's speech, highlighting the ongoing political rivalry.
