World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported39m ago
On Tuesday, the Hungarian Parliament elected constitutional law expert András Baka as the new head of state, marking the beginning of the post-Orbán era in the country. Baka, a jurist who previously served as president of the Supreme Court, was dismissed from that role in 2011 due to his opposition to the judicial independence attacks carried out by former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's ultranationalist government.
His ascension to the presidency places a former critic of the previous administration at the helm of the state during a period of significant political transition in Hungary.
