Hungarian Politics
Hungarian politics is characterized by a parliamentary system where the Prime Minister is the head of government. The National Assembly, consisting of 199 members, is responsible for making laws and overseeing the executive branch. Major political parties include the Fidesz, a center-right party, and the Socialist Party, which is center-left.
Since 2010, Fidesz, led by Viktor Orbán, has held a significant majority, implementing various reforms that have sparked both support and criticism. The political landscape is also influenced by issues such as nationalism, EU relations, and immigration, shaping public discourse and policy decisions.
