Péter Magyar, leader of the Tisza party, is expected to be sworn in as Hungary's new prime minister on 9 or 10 May and has begun revealing a cabinet that prioritises professional expertise over political loyalty — a pointed contrast to outgoing premier Viktor Orbán's approach. Key appointments include economist András Kármán at the Finance Ministry, orthopaedic surgeon Zsolt Hegedűs at Health, and former armed forces chief of staff Romulusz Ruszin-Szendi as Defence Minister. Magyar also faces an early diplomatic test: the EU Court of Justice has ruled that Orbán's so-called 'child protection law' — which restricted depictions of sexual minorities in media — violates EU law, obliging the new government to act in order to unlock billions in frozen EU funds.
