Marinika Tepić, vice president of the Freedom and Justice Party (SSP), said that the exposure of corruption cases in Hungary, announced by election winner Péter Magyar, will also have an impact on Serbia’s political future.
According to Tepić, reviewing the significant increase in wealth among certain individuals in Hungary could serve as an example of how anti-corruption efforts might function in practice.
“We are observing Hungary’s path in terms of how legal frameworks will be shaped, while at the same time we are finalizing our own solutions that will begin to be implemented from the first day of a new government in Serbia,” she said.
Tepić added that individuals who have governed Serbia for 14 years have become multimillionaires, and that after a change of власти, they would be required to prove the origin of their assets.
She emphasized that developments in Hungary could serve as a reference point for anti-corruption reforms in Serbia.
The comments come after Hungary’s National Election Commission confirmed that the opposition Tisza Party, led by Péter Magyar, won a two-thirds parliamentary majority with 138 out of 199 seats, securing a decisive victory.
Outgoing Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has acknowledged defeat.
The election was marked by a record turnout of 77.8%, significantly higher than in previous cycles.
