The Tisza Party will bring home European Union funding and use it for road development, hospitals and energy efficiency projects, Peter Magyar, the head of the party which won the election on Sunday, said on public television on Wednesday.
Tisza has won convincingly, with 138 seats in Hungary’s 199-seat parliament, securing a two-thirds supermajority. Fidesz falls to 55 seats, and will serve as the main opposition party. DK failed to win a single seat, and Klára Dobrev resigned as party leader.
Former Ukrainian-born Hungarian gang member László Kovács has accused Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán of accepting large sums of cash from Ukrainian-born Russian underworld figure Semion Mogilevich to finance his 1998 election campaign.
JD Vance said, straight after talking about an unprecedented level of foreign interference in the Hungarian election campaign, “I’m here to help him (Orbán) in this campaign cycle”.
