Hvilken vei, Ungarn—en ny runde med Orbán?

Demokratiske normer er under økende press, og Ungarn blir ofte fremhevet som et eksempel på demokratisk tilbakegang. Landet går til valg 12. april.

Hovedinnhold

Samtalen holdes på engelsk

On April 12, Hungary will hold parliamentary election, an important test of whether the opposition can challenge Viktor Orbán’s long-standing hold on power. The election also raises broader questions about how democratic backsliding can unfold within a member state of the European Union.

This panel discussion will examine what is at stake in the upcoming election, the prospects for the opposition, and key issues such as media control, populism, and potential foreign influence on the electoral process.

We will also place Hungary within a wider European context by comparing similar democratic challenges across the region.
