Hungary votes in watershed election
from Kan English · host כאן | Kan
Hungarians are voting Sunday in an election that could bring down long-serving Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and have significant repercussions for the rest of Europe, the US and Russia. Most polls favor Péter Magyar, who formed a grassroots party after splitting from the ruling Fidesz party, but the night before the vote Orbán was in defiant mood. "We are going to achieve such a victory that will surprise everyone, perhaps even ourselves," he told several thousand supporters in a small square on Budapest's Castle Hill. KANS's Mark Weiss spoke with Dr Maya Sion Tsidkiyahu from Mitvim, the Israel Institute for Regional Foreign Policies. (Photo: Reuters)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
