Viktor Orban stated that he is not afraid of losing the 2026 elections, in the context of polls that place his rival, Peter Magyar, at the top of voter preferences.

Viktor Orban, the Prime Minister of Hungary, stated that he is not afraid of a possible defeat in the elections in the spring of 2026, in the context where Peter Magyar, the opposition leader, is leading comfortably in the polls. Orban, who has held the position of Prime Minister for nearly two decades, emphasized that he has experience in opposition and that he is not worried about his political future.

Magyar promises to combat corruption and revitalize the economy, which gives him an advantage in voter preferences. Orban also criticized the European Union, considering it a danger to Hungary and stating that Brussels would like to change the government in Budapest. He claims that his main opponent is not Magyar, but the influence of the European Union on Hungarian politics.
