The situation in Budapest remains tense after the parliamentary elections, and residents are actively reacting to the preliminary voting results on the streets of the city. The corresponding footage is published by Izvestia on April 13.

According to preliminary data, the opposition Tisa party may win about two-thirds of the seats in the Hungarian parliament. This can lead to significant changes in the country's political course.

"The change that the Hungarian majority voted for will not be felt immediately, but only after 30 days," said Igor Baldin, a correspondent for Izvestia.

Despite the ongoing vote count abroad, acting Prime Minister Viktor Orban has already acknowledged the results, calling them understandable and painful for his Fidesz party. There is a tense atmosphere on the streets of Budapest: residents are actively discussing the election results, disputes and cases of dismantling campaign materials are being recorded.

Baldin pointed to the remaining open question of how a possible change of government would affect Hungary's foreign policy, including relations with other countries.

The leader of the opposition party, Peter Magyar, announced his party's victory in the parliamentary elections earlier that day. According to him, together they managed to change Orban's system.

On April 12, the head of Tisa called on all the current leadership of the country, including Hungarian President Tamas Szujok, to resign. In addition, he called for the resignation of the head of the Supreme Court, the Prosecutor General, the head of the media regulator and other senior executives.

All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
