According to preliminary results, the political force of pro-Russian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has weakened its position, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/eu-european-election-results-2024-hungary-viktor-orban-fidesz-party-peter-magyar-tisza-party\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/eu-european-election-results-2024-hungary-viktor-orban-fidesz-party-peter-magyar-tisza-party\/\">Politico<\/a> reports. <\/p>\n\n<p>According to the first results, Fidesz received 44.2% of the votes in the European Parliament, while the opposition, recently formed center-right party of Peter Magyar, Respect and Freedom (TISZA), came in second with 30%. The result of the opposition force is much higher than experts predicted. It is noted that such results will give Fidesz 11 seats in the European Parliament, and the opposition &#8211; seven.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Despite the results, Viktor Orban himself has already congratulated his party&#8217;s victory after the vote.<\/p>\n\n<p>Over the past two decades, Fidesz has only once won less than 50% of the vote &#8211; in 2004. Back then, the political force won 47.4% of the vote. Compared to the previous European Parliament elections held in 2019, the ruling Hungarian party lost almost 8% and 2 seats.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Commenting on the preliminary election results, Orban&#8217;s former ally, 43-year-old Peter Magyar, told his supporters that the results of the vote mark &#8220;the end of an era.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p>&#8220;We will see historical figures who will provide a very good basis for returning our homeland step by step, brick by brick, in the next parliamentary elections,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n\n<p>Fidesz &#8211; Hungarian Civic Union (Hungarian: Fidesz &#8211; Magyar Polg\u00e1ri Sz\u00f6vets\u00e9g) is a Hungarian right-wing, national conservative party. It is one of the two largest political parties in Hungary. It was founded on March 30, 1988.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hungary&#8217;s ruling Fidesz party and its allies have received the worst result in the European Parliament elections in two decades.
