Hungarian prosecutors raid Fidesz party servers as new government targets Orbán's legacy
Hungary's Fidesz party, led by former nationalist leader Viktor Orbán, announced on Tuesday that prosecutors raided its data servers in an unprecedented move since the end of communism in 1990. The raid comes after Prime Minister Peter Magyar's pro-European Tisza party won a two-thirds majority in April elections, ending Orbán's 16-year hardline rule. Magyar's government has swiftly implemented anti-corruption measures and constitutional changes to prevent Orbán from running again. Fidesz has accused the new government of autocratic behavior, a charge previously leveled against Orbán himself. The raid marks a significant escalation in the political transition, as Magyar seeks to dismantle Orbán's lingering influence over the Hungarian state.
