Orbán announces national consultation on Tisza’s supposed “leaked tax plans”

Two events took place in Kötcse, Hungary, marking the unofficial start of the election campaign for parliamentary elections. Fidesz held its traditional picnic, where Viktor Orbán spoke, while the Tisza Party organized a rally to challenge Fidesz's dominance. Tisza's event forced Fidesz to broadcast Orbán's speech live, a departure from past practices. The Tisza Party aims to lower taxes and improve public services, while Fidesz continues to push claims of Tisza's tax increases. Orbán also discussed Ukraine and the EU's future, expressing skepticism about the EU's stability.
