Fidesz undergoes internal restructuring following election losses
The Fidesz party in Hungary is undergoing significant internal restructuring following recent election losses. A key development is János Lázár’s decision to return his parliamentary mandate. Analysts suggest this move may be an attempt to build a new political role or direction, as Lázár has expressed a need for leadership renewal and different management styles within the party.
Fidesz parliamentary group leader János Bóka has addressed the future of the party and the role of Viktor Orbán. While Bóka noted that Orbán remains the party’s ‘gravitational center’ and will play a key role in reorganization, he indicated that the political landscape after 2030 will differ from current expectations. Bóka suggested that a new Fidesz leadership might seek to repeal rules that currently prevent Orbán from running for Prime Minister again, though this would require a two-thirds majority in future elections.
Internal shifts are also being observed around Tibor Navracsics, with some suggesting the emergence of new political formations within the party's sphere. Experts describe the current state of Fidesz as lacking a comprehensive strategy to process its recent defeat, with some observers characterizing the party's current momentum as declining.
