Journalist Márton Bede of 444.hu about the election result:
“What makes this regime change especially powerful is that Hungarians achieved it without the tailwind of history. In 1989, change came with the Soviet Union’s collapse and Western support; in 2026, the winds blow the other way”. 2/1
“Hungarians chose freedom at a time when its appeal in the West is weaker than at any point since 1945. This may yet mark a turning point—and if so, Hungarians can be proud of being the first to reject the post-democratic, illiberal stagnation of the past two decades”. 2/2
