Hungary’s Magyar calls for president’s resignation and media reforms

Hungary’s Prime Minister-elect Peter Magyar plans to form a government by mid-May following his party’s decisive election victory, ending Viktor Orban’s 16-year tenure. Magyar aims to reform state media, calling for the president’s resignation and pledging to address media bias. He faces economic challenges, including over 16 billion euros in EU recovery funds blocked due to rule-of-law concerns. His proposed reforms focus on anti-corruption, judicial independence, and restoring media freedoms.
