Incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and his party, Fidesz, are leading in Hungaryʼs parliamentary elections. This was reported by Radio Liberty and Index.

According to preliminary estimates:

Thus, Victor Orbán will head the Hungarian government for the fifth time and fourth time in a row. He announced his victory on the evening of April 3: "We have won a great victory. It can be seen even from the moon and precisely from Brussels. We will do everything possible to earn the trust we received from them tonight," said Viktor Orbán and appealed to the Hungarians of Transcarpathia not to be afraid, because "the homeland is with them".

Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Victor Orbán has stated that Hungary has banned military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine. The government is also opposed to providing Hungarian security support to Ukraine.
