In a parliamentary election in Hungary on Sunday, Péter Magyar, leader of the nation’s center-right opposition Tisza party, defeated veteran incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in a landslide victory.
With almost all votes counted, election officials said Magyar’s Tisza party is set to secure two-thirds of seats in parliament, currently winning 138 seats.
That marked the end of Orban's 16-year rule and also Hungary's adversarial role inside the European Union (EU), as per many European leaders.
