Tisza Nominated András Baka for President of Hungary
Baka also served as a judge of the International Court of Justice and is among prominent figures of the Hungarian legal community. According to available information about the nomination, the Tisza parliamentary faction decided by secret ballot. Several Hungarian media outlets noted that the election of a president without an opposing candidate is not exceptional in the political development since the change of regime. Die Zeit ↗
The nomination comes after Tamás Sulyok signed the seventeenth amendment to the basic law at the end of July, which also included his removal from the presidency. Fidesz subsequently disputed the entire procedure and responded with criticism of both Baka and Tisza's decision. Fidesz representatives claim that the new president will be dependent on Péter Magyar's political will. denik.cz ↗
The parliamentary election is to be another step in the power transition following Tisza's rise to power. If expectations are confirmed, Baka will become the new head of state on Tuesday, and his assumption of office will open another phase of the dispute between the ruling majority and Fidesz over the shape of Hungarian institutions.
