Orban to Skip Parliamentary Seat After Fidesz Election Defeat, Seeks Party Leadership
Hungary's outgoing Prime Minister Viktor Orban says he will not take up his parliamentary seat following Fidesz's landslide defeat in this month's election, but will seek re-election as party leader at its June congress to lead a process of 'renewal' of the nationalist side. The dominant figure in Hungarian politics since 1989, Orban served as premier for 16 years and was the only EU leader maintaining close ties to Putin, having delayed an EU loan to Ukraine with his veto.
