Gábor Török: The Orbán era was not a dictatorship, there was neither a revolution nor a regime change in 2026

Political analyst Gábor Török responded to Eszter Kováts' article, asserting that the Orbán era was neither a dictatorship nor a revolution in 2026. He emphasized that the democratic process remains valid as long as change is possible. Török noted that 3.4 million voters chose to replace a party that had previously held a two-thirds majority, marking a significant turning point in Hungary's post-1990 history. He argued that while some may label the events as a 'revolution', they do not meet the criteria for such a designation. Török concluded by stating that a government change occurred, initiating a new chapter in Hungary's political landscape, despite criticisms of authoritarianism.
