Bulgarian PM congratulates Péter Magyar on election victory in Hungary

I congratulated Péter Magyar on the election result. I also congratulated the citizens of Hungary, who expressed their will with record-high activity and showed Europe that democracy is not just a ballot box, caretaker Prime Minister Andrey Gyurov wrote on his official Facebook page.

“Europe is not geography and financial funds. It is a choice. A choice to be together in our values. To protect freedom. To stand up for dignity,” the caretaker Prime Minister also wrote. “We saw in Hungary what happens when people believe that their voice has power. Now comes our moment in Bulgaria,” Andrey Gyurov added.

Hungarian opposition leader Péter Magyar won the parliamentary elections on April 12 in Hungary and his center-right Tisza Party would probably have a majority of 2/3 in parliament, BTA recalls.
