Large Crowd Demonstrates Support for Orbán Ahead of Hungarian Election Budapest, Hungary – Tens of thousands of supporters gathered on Kossuth Lajos Square on Sunday to commemorate the 1848 Hungarian Revolution against Habsburg rule, marking the 1848 anniversary. The event took place as Prime Minister Viktor Orbán faces a significant challenge in the upcoming national elections, scheduled for April 12th. The demonstration, organized in support of Orbán’s continued leadership, occurred just four weeks prior to the vote, which could potentially end his 16-year tenure in office. Adding to the political tension, opposition leader Péter Magyar is planning a counter-rally in Budapest later on Sunday. Both Magyar and Orbán have recently accused each other of foreign interference in the electoral process. These accusations have heightened concerns regarding the integrity of the upcoming election. The anniversary event served as a focal point for displaying political alignment, with participants voicing their support for the Prime Minister’s policies and future direction. Security was present at both locations to manage the gatherings.
