If the Orbán system can be removed, then – and only then – can Hungary embark on a new path of development. The goal is global competitiveness, democracy and the rule of law, and the growing prosperity of citizens. With governments serving the whole nation and working for the common good, our country could, by the middle of the 21st century, become a modern, democratic and economically thriving European state that leaves behind the political divisions of recent decades.

​

The new era will begin with the strengthening of democratic institutions and the overcoming of political polarisation. Citizens will trust state institutions and actively participate in democratic processes, because:

• Hungary will have a new constitution, based on broad social consensus, ensuring the separation and balance of powers, the independence of democratic institutions, and the conditions for local self-government;
• the rule of law will rest on solid foundations, with an independent judiciary free from all political influence;
• the electoral system will be proportional and fair, allowing political diversity and representation of the real majority in society;
• governance will be based on professionalism and transparency, with no room for corruption, public procurement conducted transparently, and public funds used for the country’s genuine development;
• public media will be independent and balanced, guaranteeing freedom of expression and fair public debate.

​

Economic development will be guided by high added value, innovation and sustainable growth. The country will begin to transform its economic structure, breaking with low-end assembly work and the corruption-based model:

​

• Hungary will become one of the region’s leading innovation hubs, strong in industries such as artificial intelligence, green technologies, healthcare and robotics;
• it will have a strong and competitive domestic SME sector, one of the foundations of economic stability;
• its tax system will be fair and competitive, supporting both enterprises and employees in a balanced manner;
• Hungary will become one of the EU’s key logistics centres, exploiting its strategic geographical position to play a central role in European freight transport;
• agriculture and the food industry will be modernised sustainably, making the country a major exporter of organic food in Europe;
• the country will run a low-carbon economy, relying heavily on renewable energy (solar, wind, biomass and geothermal). Cities will operate sustainably, with smart, green-energy-based transport systems and energy-efficient infrastructure;
• Hungary will pursue a sustainable energy policy guaranteeing secure and uninterrupted energy supply without geopolitical vulnerability;
• Hungarian workers will receive wages closing up to the European average, making their homeland not a place to leave but an attractive place to live. Some of those who emigrated for work, will return, as the working environment and quality of life gradually converge with Western European levels.

​

Hungary will be a country where people need not fear for their future, because the state provides well-functioning public services:

​

• education will approach world-class standards and adapt to the challenges of the 21st-century labour market;
• healthcare will be modern and accessible to all, so that no one is forced into private provision;
• society will be open and cohesive, social mobility will be strengthened and poverty significantly reduced;
• sustainable housing and family support systems will provide younger generations with a stable start in life.
• The political stability and democratic development of the country will establish Hungary as a reliable and active member of the European Union and the transatlantic community, making it a stabilising force in the region;
• it will pursue a sovereign and balanced foreign policy, free from the influence of great powers;
• as a member of a renewed Visegrád Four, Hungary will be one of the shapers of regional and EU policies, taking an active role in European decision-making and common foreign policy;
• it will be a stable and reliable member of NATO, guaranteeing national security and the continuous development of defence capabilities;
• it will be a close strategic partner of the EU, leveraging transatlantic relations for economic and technological progress;
• it will maintain good relations with economic actors in more distant eastern and southern regions, not being subservient to neither China nor Russia.

​

After the closure of the Orbán era, Hungary can in the foreseeable future become a modern, successful and proud European country, guaranteeing prosperity for its citizens. Population decline comes to a halt, and economic emigration decreases. It will depend on the choice of the nation’s citizens whether, in 2026, the country is able to change government and set out again on the path of progress towards a promising future.
