Magyar has set a series of tasks as soon his party comes to office, having won a “super majority” of 137 seats, according to latest preliminary results.
Although they are not final, the incoming Hungarian leader believes Tisza will increase its margin of victory. Winning two-thirds of the 199 seats in parliament means the government has the ability to change the constitution and reverse Orbán-era changes.
Describing Hungary as the poorest and most corrupt member of the European Union, he says his government will create an Anti-Corruption Office and a National Asset Recovery and Protection Office, and start the process of joining the EU’s European Public Prosecutor’s Office.
Viktor Orbán’s government became infamous for a system of cronyism that allowed public contracts to go to favoured individuals, while rule of law was compromised by a lack of judicial independence.
Magyar has spoken of Hungary being robbed bare, with billions going missing in state contracts and corruption taking place on an industrial scale.
