What Happened
Peter Magyar's Tisza party won Hungary's parliamentary election, replacing Viktor Orban after 16 years. Magyar aims to improve EU relations and unlock 16 billion euros in frozen funds. He must satisfy EU criteria on judiciary independence and rule of law by August. Unlike Orban, Magyar is expected to remove Hungary's veto on a 90-billion-euro Ukraine loan, though he opposes military aid.
