Tisza party campaigns for sweeping reforms in 2026 elections.
Peter Magyar, leader of Hungary’s center-right Tisza party, launched a bold “Hungarian New Deal” today, centering on investment, anti-corruption, and economic renewal ahead of 2026 elections .
Magyar proposed cracking down on corruption, reclaiming state assets misappropriated under Fidesz, and offering investors greater predictability. His announcement at a congress in Nagykanizsa positions Tisza as a credible rival amid economic stagnation .
Tisza leads in most polls, but faces hurdles: eroding public trust under prolonged Orban rule, and geopolitical uncertainty—especially from U.S. tariff threats affecting EU markets .
Analysts say success depends on Tisza's ability to mobilize grassroots support and present solid policy, not only rhetoric. The New Deal appeals to voters seeking change amid inflation and weak growth.
