Hundreds of people who were detained during the protests remain at risk of death sentences and execution, activists say. That is of course without counting the thousands shot dead by the security forces during the demonstrations themselves. Sebastian Usher. And we have more on this on our YouTube channel.

This is the Global News Podcast. Hungary's incoming prime minister Peter Modjol says Sunday's elections in which he defeated the populist pro-Kremlin nationalist Viktor Orban saw history in the making. He vowed to usher in a new era to draw a line under Mr. Orban's 16 years of rule, proclaiming that Hungary's place was in Europe. Saying there was no time to waste, Mr. Modjol called on the president to convene the newly elected parliament as soon as possible.
Congratulations have poured in from across the European Union after Peter Modjols' landslide victory. The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said Hungary had chosen Europe. Britain's Prime Minister Keir Starmer described it as a historic moment not only for Hungary but for European democracy. And Germany's Chancellor Friedrich Mertz said Mr Modjols' victory showed that democratic societies are still resilient against Russian propaganda.
So how was Peter Modja able to win more than two thirds of the seats in parliament given Mr. Orban's stranglehold on the media and the political system? A question for our Budapest correspondent Nick Thorpe. I think there are many sort of key explanations all equally valid for Peter Modja's enormous victory in this election. One was the fact, perhaps the most important of all, was that he's also coming from the center right side.
liberaaleja ja enemmÀn vasemmallisia ihmisiÀ,
Kun he kriittisivÀt Viktor Orbania ennen, Viktor Orban pystyi kÀsittelemÀÀn sen omasta vahvistaan. HÀn pystyi kÀsittelemÀÀn, ettÀ nÀmÀ ulkomaalaiset menevÀt taas meihin. Olemme totuudet. Viktor Orban oli monopoli kansallisesta tunnistamisesta. Peter Magyar oli myös oikeassa, mutta keskustelussa, eikÀ kansainvÀlistÀ tai suomalaista poliitikkoa.
He were able to criticize Mr. Orban from a right-wing perspective, from a conservative perspective, from a national perspective. It was interesting watching him on his endless national tours. He'd always arrive walking through the crowd excited.
carrying a Hungarian tricolor flag in his hand. So he managed to sort of break Mr. Orban's monopoly on what it is to be Hungarian, what it is to stand up for national interests, for Hungarian national sovereignty. That's a key issue in all of this. So how will Peter Mojo change Hungary, given the fact that he's had this landslide victory and significantly a two-thirds majority in parliament?
It's very much about the two-thirds, Jeanette. Viktor Orban in the last 16 years has reshaped Hungary in his own image. He changed the electoral system, he changed the economy, he changed the way that the constitutional court judges are elected. He put his own person at the head of the supreme court. And indeed, if Tisiran Peter Madja had not won a two-thirds, they would have had to continue to govern in a way
...Viktor Orbånin rakennuksen sisÀllÀ. TÀmÀn kaksi kolmannen suurin osaajan kanssa he voivat muuttaa erilaisia aspekteja. He voivat pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ pysyÀ
What does this mean for Hungary's relationship with the rest of the EU? Donald Trump's victory in the US seemed to give the populist right a new momentum. Does Mr Orban's defeat mean the tide is shifting? It could mean that, and certainly the right in Europe have lost an iconic figure in Viktor Orban. Of course they haven't lost him, he's still around, he's only 62 years old, but I think we could see a change in the right wing, because...
Viktor OrbĂĄnsin viestintĂ€ heille, mitĂ€ hĂ€n opetti kansalaisista Euroopassa, oli radikalisoida itseÀÀn. ĂlĂ€ ole vahva radikalisen kansalaisuudesta, koska kuten nĂ€et, minun tapaukseni se on onnistunut. Joten luulen, ettĂ€ me voimme nĂ€hdĂ€...
niiden kansallisten puolueiden ympÀri Eurooppaa, jatketaan enemmÀn, jatketaan ehkÀ hieman enemmÀn keskelle, de-radikalisoidaan itseÀmme, koska lopulta Viktor Orbånin kokemus illiberaalista demokraattista tai mitÀ tahdotaan kutsua, on ainakin aikanaan onnistunut.
Nick Thorpe in Budapest. Well, the Ukrainian government was one of the first to congratulate Peter Mojo for his election victory. President Zelensky said his country was ready to work with Hungary after a bruising relationship with Mr. Orban, who has repeatedly blocked support for Ukraine, including a vital EU aid package. I asked our correspondent in Kyiv, Sarah Rainsford, if the Ukrainians were hoping this would change.
KyllÀ, todennÀköisesti todennÀköisesti todennÀköisesti todennÀköisesti todennÀköisesti
Kaikki muuttuvat. He eivÀt tiedÀ Peter Maggiaa hyvin. He eivÀt tiedÀ, mitÀ hÀn tarkoittaa, mutta he tiedÀvÀt, ettÀ hÀn ei ole Viktor Orban. He tiedÀvÀt, mitÀ Orban tarkoittaa Ukrainasta. Se on ollut ongelma jokaisella ongelmalla. Kun olen puhunut heidÀn kanssaan, he nÀkevÀt Viktor Orban kuin Putinin mies.
They say that although the real enemy is Vladimir Putin and he's still in place, losing Viktor Orban from the geopolitical stage can only be good news for Hungary. So certainly a lot of relief here today. I won't say they're celebrating, but certainly a lot of relief that as far as Ukraine is concerned, this is a very, very positive result.
Kuten sanoit, Peiton Rojo on vielÀ hieman epÀonnistunut monille ihmisille. MitÀ olet voinut kÀsitellÀ hÀnen kÀsityksensÀ Ukrainaan? En usko, ettÀ nÀemme tÀysin uudistuksen, koska Hungaria tulee sanoa, ettÀ toivomme auttaa sÀÀntöÀ ja lÀhetÀmme sÀÀntöjÀ jollain tavalla. Se on asia, jota Italiassa ei toimi. En usko, ettÀ nÀemme tÀysin uudistuksen. Mutta uskon, ettÀ muu musiikki tulee olemaan erilainen.
I think that the kind of complete block on aid is going to be removed. I think Petri Maja has suggested he's going to be far more flexible, far more sympathetic to Ukraine in that sense. And that's what people are looking for. It's interesting to see he has made a few comments already saying that he would be open to dialogue with Russia, but not as friends. And when you talk to Ukrainians, what they see is that they believe Viktor Orban is
