BiH Foreign Minister Elmedin Konaković congratulated opposition leader Péter Magyár on his election victory, saying he was looking forward to a new chapter in Hungary’s relations with Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Konaković’s congratulations to Magyár on his election victory particularly underscored the importance of repairing relations between Budapest and Sarajevo, which were damaged during Viktor Orbán’s rule.
“We look forward to a new chapter in relations between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Hungary, based on mutual respect, true partnership and shared European values,” Konaković wrote.
According to official data from the National Election Commission (based on 89.97 percent of votes counted), the Tisza party is currently winning an incredible 138 seats in the 199-seat parliament.
On the other hand, Orbán’s Fidesz has fallen to just 54 seats, one of the party’s worst results in the last decade.
