Career and politics
In 1990, Orban for the first time became a parliament deputy, representing the Fidez batch. Saving in the government throughout the two deadlines, in 1998 Viktor became the country's prime minister. By that time, his political views shifted from liberal to the center-night. The politician performed for social reforms, including free higher education, maternal benefits, reducing tax rates, elimination of unemployment.
With the young premiere of Hungary, it was possible to reduce inflation, join NATO and accelerate integration into the European Union. At the same time, Orban demonstrated a craving for authoritarianism, seeking to increase his own powers and a decrease in the influence of Parliament. Increased claims played with Victor, a keen joke: the subsequent elections "Fides" and its leader lost.
In 2010, the authorities returned to Orban again, and he was no longer going to share it anymore. Having received a constitutional majority in parliament, the politician turned into a modern dictator with unlimited powers. The first thing was rewritten by the Constitution, the structure of the Constitutional Court and Parliament was updated, where key positions began to belong to members of the Fides party.
National politics are put to the head of the corner, when the statements of the Prime Minister constantly sound the messages about the threats of identity, with which the persons of Hungarian nationality are subjected due to uncontrolled migration. In the European Parliament, Orban stated that he would protect his people and the borders from the influx of refugees. At the same time, a man seeks to defend the rights of ethnic Hungarians living in the territory of other states - Ukraine, Poland, Slovakia, etc.
Victor is not afraid to conflict with the West, causing the criticism of the European Union. At the same time, the Hungarian autocrat establishes close ties with Vladimir Putin and Dmitry Medvedev, focusing on their support. However, at the negotiations with Donald Trump, Orban chose to agree on alternative gas supply sources in Hungary, in order to independently depend entirely from Russia in commodity. At the same time, the politician ignored the requirements of the United States to take a tough position in relation to China and Russia, justifying these economic benefits.
Victor Orban now
The beginning of 2020 was disturbed: the coronavirus pandemic led to a state of emergency throughout the planet. News and statistics only convince that the situation with COVID-19 does not have the prospects for rapid resolution. In this regard, in Hungary expanded the powers of Orban for an indefinite period, making it impossible early elections and suspending individual laws.
From March 30, 2020, the Coronavirus Law operates in the country, according to which the Government manages the country through operational decrees and decrees. These measures caused a squall of criticism in society, and without the perturbed unlimited authority of Orban and his party. However, in modern conditions, critical statements may threaten a criminal period if they are interpreted as obstacles to the state in effective protection against the proliferation of coronavirus.
For each fifth resident of Hungary, it is obvious that political competition, the independence of the media and the eligibility of the judicial system have long been torn in history. However, in the conditions of the "mafia state", where the power is concentrated in the hands of the Prime Minister and its close, it is unlikely that someone seriously counts on a quick change in the current situation.
