Recall
On February 21, the parliamentary election campaign began in Hungary, where Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and opposition politician Péter Magyar are competing for the post of head of government.
In early February 2026, the leader of Hungary's opposition "Tisza" party, Péter Magyar, stated that Viktor Orbán planned to leak his intimate videos, calling it "blackmail in the style of the Russian Federation."
Subsequently, the European Commission reduced its public criticism of the Orbán government to avoid accusations of interference and to avoid fueling his anti-Brussels campaign.
