New Government In Hungary
Days after the Prime Minister Peter Magyar and the new government were inaugurated, there was a big public event at Kossuth Lajos Square once again. When British popstar Jalja sang the same tune that was played when Hegedus’ now famous dance was performed during the previous rally, the crowd erupted again. When the music started people stopped talking and turned their attention to the stage, waiting for another performance of the Health Minister. Hegedus reacted with his characteristic dance movements, and it was a night for the people to go wild and to make the party gathering one of the most unforgettable political party scenes in Hungarian politics in recent years.
