BUDAPEST — The 16-year reign of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán looks set to end after a major election loss on Sunday that will send political shockwaves from Washington to Moscow.
The EU’s most autocratic leader — a close ally of both U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin — was on course for a crushing defeat in Sunday’s vote.
With more than 45 percent of the vote counted, his opponent Péter Magyar looked set to win 135 seats in the 199-seat parliament.
