Viktor Orbán recognized tonight the victory of Péter Magyar's Tisza party in the Hungarian parliamentary elections in 2026. After more than 16 years of defending Hungarian sovereignty, Fidesz lost power. But the result is not only explained by the Hungarians' vote: the European Union played a decisive role with a clear and million-dollar promise
.Brussels had frozen 18 billion euros destined for Hungary. That money was blocked precisely because of Orbán's firm policies: the defense of borders, independence from the impositions of the EU and the protection of national identity. For years, the European Commission conditioned these funds on Hungary complying with its requirements
.Now it's clear: the EU let it be clear that, if Péter Magyar won, those 18 billion would be thawed immediately. It was a direct message to Hungarian voters in the midst of the economic crisis.
