Peter Magyar Becomes Hungary's New Prime Minister, Ending Orbán Era

Peter Magyar has been sworn in as Hungary's new prime minister, officially ending Viktor Orbán's lengthy tenure in power. The new Hungarian government has taken office with Magyar's cabinet promising a change of regime from the previous administration. Under the new government structure, four key ministries have been granted veto powers within the cabinet, marking a significant shift in how executive decisions will be made. The transition represents the definitive end of Orbán's fifth government, concluding one of Europe's longest-serving leaderships that had been in power since 2010 and was known for its increasingly authoritarian policies and conflicts with European Union institutions.
