Share:
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has offered to resign as leader of his Fidesz party following his party's recent parliamentary election defeat. A party congress scheduled for June 13 will decide whether to accept his resignation. Over the weekend, Orbán announced he would also give up his parliamentary mandate. The move represents a significant political development for the longtime Hungarian leader, whose Fidesz party has dominated Hungarian politics for years before suffering this electoral setback.
