Viktor Orbán and Australia’s right: A love story

After 16 years in power, far-right Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán conceded defeat in elections held over the weekend. Orban’s Christian nationalist Fidesz party lost its long-held supermajority in Hungary’s 199-seat parliament to the centre-right, pro-EU Tisza Party, led by 45-year-old Péter Magyar.

Following this result, there are many names to consider in world politics. US President Donald Trump, who really needs good news right now, sent Vice President JD Vance to Orbán’s campaign.
