Moscow hopes to establish dialogue with the next prime minister, Dmitry Peskov has said<\/strong><\/p>\n Russia expects to maintain \u201cpragmatic\u201d<\/em> relations with Hungary after Peter Magyar\u2019s Tisza party defeated Prime Minister Viktor Orban\u2019s Fidesz in the general election, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has stated.<\/p>\n Magyar\u2019s center-right opposition Tisza party secured over 53% of the vote in Sunday\u2019s vote, which gives it a qualified majority in the country\u2019s 199-seat parliament.<\/p>\n Orban, who conceded defeat, had charted an independent course, ruffling more than a few feathers in Brussels. During his time in office, he consistently opposed the EU\u2019s sanctions against Russia and military aid to Ukraine, vetoing the bloc\u2019s planned \u20ac90 billion loan package for Kiev. His government had advocated pragmatic relations with Moscow, especially in terms of energy supplies.<\/p>\n Fidesz also strongly opposed EU-imposed policies regarding migration and LGBTQ rights.<\/p>\n Speaking to reporters on Monday, Peskov said that Russia has taken note of Magyar\u2019s recent statements expressing a readiness to continue dialogue with Moscow.<\/p>\n
