Thursday, May 21Thursday, May 21Hungary’s new Prime Minister, Péter Magyar, has initiated significant shifts in both domestic and foreign policy, marking a departure from the era of his predecessor, Viktor Orbán. A newly formed party, Tisza, now in power, has proposed constitutional amendments that would limit a prime minister’s tenure to a maximum of two terms, a measure that would prevent Orbán from returning to office in the future .
In foreign policy, Magyar has prioritized rebuilding diplomatic relations with pro-European governments, beginning with a visit to Poland to strengthen ties with Donald Tusk’s administration. This visit signals a clear break from Orbán’s previous diplomatic approach, which often clashed with EU institutions. Magyar is also scheduled to visit Vienna and Brussels, further emphasizing his intent to re-engage with European partners .
Magyar has also expressed ambitions to revitalize and expand the Visegrád Group (V4), proposing the inclusion of Romania and other Central European and Western Balkan states. This move aims to reshape regional cooperation and enhance Hungary’s influence within Europe . During his campaign, Magyar faced threats, which he attributed to external actors, including Russia, while reaffirming Hungary’s place within Europe and rejecting vetoes for their own sake .
