In Hungary, far-right Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has conceded defeat in Sunday’s parliamentary election, bringing 16 years of authoritarian rule to an end. Official results show Péter Magyar and his center-right, pro-EU Tisza party won in a landslide, with more than the two-thirds majority needed to reverse Orbán-era changes to Hungary’s constitution. Tens of thousands of people celebrated the results in the streets of Budapest Sunday night.
Ime Sarkozy: “I think this nation woke up. And we try to again to rebuild all the relationship in our families, because this is the most important thing, the love and kindness and to believe in the future. And this nation one of the best nations in Europe, and we can show we can change also other nations to wake up.”
Orbán has been prime minister of Hungary since 2010, making him the European Union’s longest-serving leader. He was supported by Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Trump administration. Last week, Vice President JD Vance traveled to Budapest to campaign for Orbán ahead of Sunday’s election. We’ll have more on this story later in the broadcast.
