Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has congratulated Tisza Party President Péter Magyar on his victory in the Hungarian parliamentary elections.
“Extend my cordial congratulations to Péter Magyar & the Hungarian people on the occasion of the victory in the Hungarian elections. These democratic elections reflect the will of the Hungarian people & the future vision of the country,” Pashinyan said on X.
With 98% of votes counted, Hungarian opposition leader Péter Magyar’s Tisza Party secured 138 seats in the 199-seat parliament with 53.6% of the vote, while incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz won just 55 seats with 37.8% of the vote in an election that saw nearly 80% turnout. Orbán has conceded defeat after 16 years in power.
