Hungary’s Opposition Flexes Muscle With Mass Rally Against Orban

Hungarian opposition leader Peter Magyar’s supporters packed central Budapest in a show of strength a month before elections that polls show could spell the end of Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s 16-year rule.

Backers of Magyar’s Tisza party lined the capital’s Andrassy Avenue for more than a mile on Sunday ahead of the April 12 vote. Hours earlier, Orban’s supporters massed in front of parliament on the country’s annual commemoration of its failed 1848 revolution against Habsburg rule.
