Former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orb\u00e1n is set to arrive in Poland this Saturday for a significant meeting with Law and Justice (PiS) leader Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski to discuss the future of the European right.<\/p>\n
Viktor Orb\u00e1n is visiting Poland following a major shift in his political career. After sixteen years in power, he suffered a decisive defeat in the April 2026 parliamentary elections against the Tisza party, led by P\u00e9ter Magyar.<\/p>\n
Despite the electoral loss, which saw Fidesz secure only 52 seats compared to Tisza’s 141, Orb\u00e1n remains the party chairman. He is currently focused on rebuilding his influence and developing a new strategy from the opposition benches.<\/p>\n
The meeting with Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski serves as a critical move for Orb\u00e1n. While the two parties long shared a vision of national sovereignty and skepticism toward EU integration, their relationship was strained by differing stances on the Russian invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n
PiS has maintained a firm position on military support for Kyiv, whereas the Hungarian government preserved ties with Moscow. However, the current political landscape and the necessity to redefine the European right have brought the two leaders back to the table.<\/p>\n
Orb\u00e1n has been actively working to maintain his international network, recently appearing at a “Patriots for Europe” gathering in Brussels. This group of national-conservative parties serves as a platform for him to exert influence despite no longer holding government office.<\/p>\n
The discussions with Kaczy\u0144ski are expected to address both bilateral party cooperation and the broader direction of right-wing politics in Europe following the seismic political changes in Hungary.<\/p>\n
The political environment surrounding both PiS and Fidesz has evolved. While PiS remains a critic of Vladimir Putin, its domestic focus has expanded to include complex trade and historical disputes regarding Ukraine’s potential EU membership.<\/p>\n
This shifting debate creates a new backdrop for the dialogue between the two sides. For Orb\u00e1n, the visit is a tactical step in his comeback efforts, demonstrating that he remains a central figure in European right-wing politics.<\/p>\n
