Encyclopedic overview
Péter Magyar (born 16 March 1981) is a Hungarian politician who has served as prime minister of Hungary since May 2026. He has also been the president of the Tisza Party since 2024. Magyar served as a member of the European Parliament (MEP) from 2024 to 2026.
A former member of longtime governing party Fidesz, Magyar garnered nationwide attention when he announced his resignation from all government-related positions amidst the Katalin Novák presidential pardon scandal in February 2024, after expressing deep dissatisfaction with how Fidesz was governing the country. In March 2024, he announced his desire to form a new political platform for those dissatisfied with both the government and the establishment opposition. He assumed leadership of the formerly unknown Tisza Party, emerging as the most prominent opposition leader.
