Hungarian voters have ousted long-serving Prime Minister Viktor Orbán after 16 years in power, rejecting the authoritarian policies and global far-right movement that he embodied in favor of a pro-European challenger in a bombshell election result with global repercussions.
I didn’t really expect him to lose. But I had serious doubts if he would get out of the government after it.
But then, I don’t know the details.
Even if he lost with a close result, he could have blocked lots of change. Fortunately, his opponent has a 2/3 majority, so Orban can’t do anything. 😃
