Hungary: Orbán wants to 'change Europe' after big win

 

Viktor Orbán’s far-right, anti-immigration Fidesz party has won big at home, with 52% of the votes and 13 of Hungary’s 21 seats, but they may find themselves more isolated than they had hoped in the new European parliament. Some far-right parties showed modest gains, but others have done worse than expected.

 

However, Orbán claimed the elections showed a wave of nationalist gains. He spoke to a crowd outside “the Whale”, the Fidesz campaign headquarters in Budapest on the Danube. “We are small but we want to change Europe,” he said, describing the elections as “the beginning of a new era against migration”.
