Peter Magyar, the conservative who has put an end to Orban's domination

Tisza's leader, Peter Magyar , winner of the legislative elections and future prime minister of Hungary, has succeeded in bringing together the wishes of those who were fed up with the hegemony of the all-powerful and ultra-nationalist Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, with a conservative discourse and anti-corruption.

This charismatic 45-year-old lawyer was almost unknown until 2024, but since his appearance in the sand of politics he has been strong; not for nothing, he has been leading opinion polls for more than a year. 

He had been a member of Orbanuntil 2024, decided to break up with him by pardoning someone convicted of concealing paedophilia crimes. 

A few months after taking over Tisza's leadership, he won almost 30% of the vote in the European elections and sent seven delegates to the European Chamber, including Magyar himself, where he joined the European People's Party. 

The fact that he knows his rival party well from within has allowed the Hungarians to offer a change and something different.

Modernizing in economic and social, conservative, Magyar has been able to unite around him those who were no longer at ease in officialism, the liberal and even progressive opposition, who, after 16 years of rule by Orban and his Fidesz, were all hungry for change. 

Using his youthful style and skilful use of social media , he has connected in a special way with the younger ones, who have never met any authority other than Orban in power. 

Magyar is portrayed as a conservative , a defender of the family, of the nation and of Christianity , but with a clear Europeanism and a more open political character than the ultraconservative Orban. However, on some issues, such as his opposition toillegal immigration, the closeness to Orban's ideas is clear. 

Although changes are expected in Hungary, it should be noted thatMagyar is not a progressive leader. Hungary remains a country with a conservative and liberal majority, albeit significantly more moderate. 

To "clean up" the institutions.

Peter Magyar comes to put an end to Europe's "most corrupt" regime. He claims that corruption has made Hungary the "poorest" country in the European Union (EU).

In response, Magyar has promised to "clean up" the institutions and revive the economy. He has said that Hungary will immediately join the European Public Prosecutor's Office to investigate the use of public funds by the Orban Government and to recover the resources diverted.

To this must be added that Brussels has frozen billions of euros of European fundsto Budapest, as Orban's policies raised concerns about the rule of law. Magyar is now committed to unblocking these funds, while promising to try to restore confidence in the institutions of the European Union, thus changing Orban's policy of confrontation.

"Our country is part of the European community, NATO and the West," Magyar said at his last campaign rally.

In the face of Orban's closeness to Moscow, Magyar has said that the consequences of the victory will also be seen in the Kremlin, referring to the current government's ties with Russia.
