Fidesz party

Fidesz is a Hungarian right-wing political party founded in 1998 by Viktor Orbán. The party has been a dominant force in Hungarian politics since its inception, with Orbán serving as Prime Minister from 2010 to 2022. Recently, Orbán's party suffered a landslide defeat in the 2022 general election, leading to a frantic scramble among his associates to move their wealth out of Hungary. Péter Magyar, a 45-year-old politician who was once an admirer of Orbán, is now leading the polls as Hungary prepares for its next election. Fidesz's recent events and developments highlight the party's ongoing relevance in Hungarian politics, particularly in the context of Orbán's departure from power.
