“The mandate I received as leader of the list of Fidesz-Christian Democrats” is actually the parliamentary mandate of Fidesz, so I decided to return it. Now he is needed not in the parliament, but for the reorganization of the national movement,” Orban said.
He added that the party will hold a nationwide meeting next week, and the congress to elect the leadership has been postponed to June.
Direct speech: “I have led our community for almost four decades, during which time we have experienced successes and failures, victories and defeats in elections. But one thing has remained constant: this camp has always been the most united and united political community in Hungary, and this unity is very much needed by Hungary now.
The presidium suggests that I continue my work as the head of Fidesz, and if the congress honors me with its trust, I am ready for this task.”
Details: As you know, a few hours after the closing of the polling stations in Hungary on Sunday, Prime Minister Viktor Orban after 16 years in power admitted defeat and congratulated the opponents on the victory.
