The leader of Hungary&#8217;s largest opposition party on Sunday told thousands of supporters that he would guide his country out of its international isolation if he defeats Prime Minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n in elections scheduled for next year.<\/p>\n<p>P\u00e9ter Magyar, the leader of the Respect and Freedom (Tisza) party, represents the most serious challenge to Orb\u00e1n&#8217;s power since the right-wing populist leader took office in 2010. Recent polling suggests that Tisza has overtaken Orb\u00e1n&#8217;s Fidesz party as Hungary struggles with a stagnating economy and has been politically sidelined in the European Union over Orb\u00e1n&#8217;s policies.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at a rally in Budapest on Sunday, Magyar said that, if elected, he would restore Hungary&#8217;s relationships and reputation among its allies that have suffered as Orb\u00e1n has attacked the EU and pursued close relationships with autocracies like Russia and China. \u201cWe will finally put our common affairs in order,\u201d Magyar said. &#8221;Our homeland, Hungary, will once again be a proud and reliable ally of NATO. Hungary will once again be a full-fledged member of the European Union.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Orb\u00e1n, a self-described \u201cilliberal\u201d leader, has been accused by critics of having led Hungary out of the community of European democracies by eroding democratic institutions, violating judicial independence and taking over much of Hungary&#8217;s media. Since taking power in 2010, he and his Fidesz party have led the country with a two-thirds majority in parliament, and easily defeated any opposition.<\/p>\n<p>But recent polls suggest that Tisza has pulled ahead of Fidesz in popularity as Magyar&#8217;s campaign focuses on economic and social issues facing the country like persistent inflation, a poor healthcare system and alleged government corruption. \u201cAnyone who thinks things are going well in this country is blind. Orb\u00e1n and his circle are the main reason for the problems,&#8221; she said. Magyar said Orb\u00e1n&#8217;s system \u201ccannot be reformed, cannot be fixed, cannot be improved. This system can only be replaced, and that is what we will do \u2014 lawfully, democratically, but with determination, we will cut down the regime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/2025\/04\/14\/hungarys-opposition-leader-peter-magyar-holds-a-rally-in-budapest\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/hungarys-opposition-leader-peter-magyar-holds-a-rally-in-budapest\/\">Hungary\u2019s opposition leader P\u00e9ter Magyar holds a rally in Budapest<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[2214,18550,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-139045","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-hungary","tag-peter-magyar","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139045","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139045"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139045\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139045"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139045"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139045"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
