He was adept at removing the labels that his opponents attached to him. One of them was the statement that Peter was a swindler and a cheater who was behind his successful wife&#8217;s back. Magyar&#8217;s ex-wife, Judit Varga, was Orb\u00e1n&#8217;s minister of justice. And the reason for the &#8220;swindler&#8221; was that Magyar took maternity leave so his wife could pursue a career as a lawyer in Brussels in the 2000s.<\/p>\n<p>What is a cuckold for one type of audience? He is a caring father and partner for other types of audiences. Then, Orban&#8217;s propaganda somewhat adjusted the image of Magyar\u2014they tried to portray him as an abuser and a brat. But here, the winner of the elections himself told how his ex raised his fists at him.<\/p>\n<p>Three. Orban and Co. blackmailed their opponent with an intimate video from a party. But Magyar said BEFORE publication that he was a young, free man and, of course, engaged in intimate activities. Moreover, this is done by mutual consent and with adults present. So the video never came out.<\/p>\n\t\t<aside class=\"shortcode-also\" data-title=\"Read also\" >\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/en\/europe-survived-how-hungarians-thwarted-trump-and-putins-plans\/\">A Political Breakthrough: Hungary Derails Trump and Putin\u2019s Strategy in Europe<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n<p>Four. An important milestone is the public appearance of the popular military man Palinkas, who spoke about the depths of Russian invasions into local armed forces. And details about Orban&#8217;s son, who is building a career as a military man and sending people on knowingly questionable operations.<\/p>\n<p>Five. Powerful showers of intelligence reports about Szijjarto&#8217;s conversations with Lavrov and especially Orban&#8217;s admission that he is ready to be Putin&#8217;s mouse.<\/p>\n<p>Six. The Magyars campaigned well. He had five to six meetings a day in every corner of Hungary. This helped show that he is not a spoiled metropolitan dandy with a cappuccino on a banana but a leader who listens to everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Seven. The Magyar hit with the same argument that once brought Viktor Orban into big politics. After his ex-wife signed a decree pardoning the p&amp;d@f1la in April 2023, Peter wrote a devastating post about how corrupt Hungarian leaders hide behind women&#8217;s skirts. He also resigned from his position at a state-owned company and joined the popular YouTube channel, Partizan.<\/p>\n\t\t<aside class=\"shortcode-also\" data-title=\"Read also\" data-right>\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/en\/hungarian-elections-what-is-the-difference-between-orban-and-magyar\/\">Hard to Tell Them Apart?

And many paid attention to the adorable, tongue-tied blond. Because before, only journalists of the level of Szobolcs P\u00e1nya, whom Szijj\u00e1rt\u00f3 and Orb\u00e1n branded as Sorosites and agents of Brussels, had spoken about such things.<\/p>\n<p>Magyar successfully used the moment and soon called on concerned Hungarians to a rally. The event gathered about 30,000 Hungarians, and thus, the creation of a new opposition party was announced.<\/p>\n<p><em>As a reminder, as of the morning <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/orban-vyznav-svoiu-porazku-chym-zavershylysia-vybory-v-uhorshchyni\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">of April 13, the voting results in Hungary have been almost completely processed<\/a>.
