Magyar announced his intention to implement comprehensive changes in the country's political system and foreign policy.\n\n## A New Era in Hungary: Péter Magyar Sworn in as Prime Minister\n\nIn a dramatic event that took place on May 9, 2026, Péter Magyar ended the 16-year reign of Viktor Orbán, after being officially sworn in as the Prime Minister of Hungary. According to reports by ТСН новини, the move marks a significant turning point in the country's foreign policy, as Orbán was considered one of Moscow's closest allies in Europe.\n\nAt the inaugural session of parliament, Channel 24 reported that Magyar was elected with a majority of 140 votes in favor against 54 opposing. During his inaugural speech, as noted in Shrike News, Magyar issued an ultimatum to the President of the country, Tamás Sulyok, to resign from his position by May 31, arguing that he cannot represent Hungary due to his silence regarding the \"destruction of democracy\" and corruption attributed to the previous administration.\n\nInitial signs of a policy shift were already visible in parliament; DW Україна reported that the first symbolic act of the new Speaker of Parliament, Ágnes Forstehofer, was the return of the European Union flag to the parliament building after a 12-year absence. In the Ukrainian media, which characterizes the change of government positively, it was noted that Magyar's party, \"TISZA\", won a significant majority in the elections held on April 12.\n\nDespite the optimism among pro-European circles, reports of disagreements also appeared in the media. Channel 24 noted that Magyar was at the center of public criticism due to suspicion of nepotism, after he proposed his relative for the position of Minister of Justice – a proposal that was later taken off the table due to public pressure, as reported by ADASTRA."}]
