It is not common to see them on the same side. But this time yes.
and the leader of the PP, coincided this Sunday in celebrating the result of the elections in Hungarya, which have represented a major political shift in the country.
leader of the Tisza party, which has achieved a large parliamentary majority and ended more than a decade of Viktor Orbán’s rule.
A victory that unites PSOE and PP
From the Government, Sánchez has valued the result as something more than a political change in Hungary.
“Today Europe and European values win”he wrote on social networks, in a message in which he also congratulated Hungarian citizens for an election that he described as “historic.”
The leader of the PP, for his part, has followed the same line, although with his own approach.
“It is great news that there is more Popular Party in Europe,” said Feijóo, who highlighted that Hungary has opted “massively for a pro-European party” in a context of uncertainty.
Both agree on a basic idea: the result reinforces the European project.
The Government celebrates it as the end of a model
Within the Executive, the tone has been even more forceful.
Vice President Yolanda Díaz was direct: “Today an authoritarian project falls in Europe. Viktor Orbán falls.”
For Díaz, the result sends a broader political message: “They can be stopped. We are going to beat them.”
Along the same lines, the Foreign Minister, José Manuel Albares stressed that “with these elections Europe also wins” and opted to work with the new Hungarian Government for a “strong and united” European Union.
Vox, on the opposite side
But not everyone has done the same reading. Go where.
He has openly lamented the defeat of Orbán, whom he considers a political reference.
“Hungary was the only nation in Europe safe from the Islamist invasion. The defeat puts her in danger,” he wrote on social networks.
Abascal also defended the legacy of the Hungarian leader, ensuring that he leaves the country “much better than he received it” and appealed to continue “fighting for the sovereignty, freedom and prosperity of nations.”
A political turnaround in Hungary
Beyond the reactions, the results leave little room for doubt.
With more than 80% of the votes counted, the Tisza party of Péter Magyar has achieved a two-thirds majority in Parliament, with 137 seats out of a total of 199.
The until now ruling Fidesz, led by Orbánis far behind, with 55 seats, after more than a decade in power with an absolute majority.
The third party, Nuestra Patria, from the extreme right, achieves much more limited representation.
A result that echoes throughout Europe
What happened in Hungary It is not just a national change.
It is a result that is interpreted in a European key. A movement that reconfigures political balances and that is already being used by the different Spanish parties to reinforce their own discourses.
For now, it leaves an unusual image: Government and opposition coinciding.
