The “Tisa” party, led by Peter Magyar, has secured a decisive lead, positioned to take 138 out of 199 seats in parliament. This victory grants the opposition a constitutional majority, effectively ending the dominant era of the previous administration and signaling a major turn in Hungarian governance.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who steered the country for 16 consecutive years, has officially conceded. Orbán congratulated his political rival, Peter Magyar, stating that his “Fidesz” party would now transition into the opposition to continue serving the national interest.
According to the BBC, the election saw a record-breaking turnout of 74.23%. While final results are expected by April 18, Peter Magyar has already hailed the win as a “new choice” for the Hungarian people and a historic milestone for the nation.
