Hungary: Winner Peter Magyar aims for a swift inauguration in early May

The winner of the recent Hungarian elections, Peter Magyar, has stated that he hopes to be sworn in as Prime Minister on May 9 or 10, depending on the President's decision regarding the date of the first parliamentary session. This announcement marks a key step in the country's political transition.

Speaking in Budapest after discussions between parties on the organization of the inaugural session, Magyar indicated his desire to expedite the investiture process. He specifically stated his intention to break with previous practices by taking the oath of office on the very day Parliament is convened.

This desire for speed reflects the importance given to taking office immediately, in a political context potentially marked by high expectations and economic and institutional challenges.

The exact date of the parliamentary session, however, depends on a presidential decision, which will determine the official transition timetable. This factor remains crucial for the implementation of the timetable put forward by Magyar.

Peter Magyar's electoral victory opens a new phase for Hungary, promising changes in the country's governance. The coming days will be crucial for the establishment of the new executive branch.

While awaiting the investiture, political discussions continue in order to prepare the functioning of the new Parliament and to ensure an orderly transition.
