Blikk, a Hungarian tabloid, sent a team to the British capital to follow the coronation of Charles III. They asked Londoners what they think who the Hungarian king was. The answers were surprising.
Of course, you should know that Hungary is not a kingdom. It was until 1946, but today it is a republic, and the parliament elects the president. Currently, Katalin Novák fills that position, elected in March 2022 by Orbán’s 2/3 legislative majority. She will remain in her office until at least 2027, but the parliament may prolong her presidential term with one more 5-year-long period.
However, Blikk, a Hungarian tabloid, asked tourists and residents of London who the Hungarian king was. The question was tricky, and most people replied they did not know. But two Polish tourists knew Hungary does not have a king or queen. They also knew that the prime minister of Hungary was Viktor Orbán. Interestingly, many Londoners and tourists knew who Orbán was. One of them even added she would not like to share her opinion about him.
