The leader of the Tisza Party and recent victor in Hungary’s parliamentary elections, Péter Magyar, has announced plans to amend legislation upon assuming the role of Prime Minister.
Among his proposed reforms is a limit on the tenure of the Prime Minister to two terms. “We will amend the Fundamental Law to stipulate that the Prime Minister of Hungary can serve only two terms, which amounts to eight years in total,” Magyar stated.
He further noted that these new regulations would effectively prevent long-serving politicians from returning to power. “Orbán has been Prime Minister for 20 years out of the 36 since the post-socialist era in Hungary, so he will no longer be able to hold this position,” the Tisza Party leader added.
In addition to term limits, Magyar outlined plans for anti-corruption initiatives, the establishment of a National Asset Recovery Office, and the commencement of Hungary’s accession to the European Public Prosecutor’s Office.
“Yesterday, millions of Hungarians demonstrated that the Hungarian people write their own history, not in Moscow. Our story is not written in Brussels or Washington, but on the streets and squares of Hungary. I am grateful that they were able to prove this,” he emphasized.
Péter Magyar, the leader of the Tisza Party, has outlined significant reforms including term limits for the Prime Minister and anti-corruption measures following his election victory. His proposals aim to reshape Hungary's political landscape and enhance accountability.
