Orban lost on Sunday to political newcomer, conservative pro-EU Peter Magyar

Hungary's outgoing nationalist prime minister Viktor Orban on Thursday called for a "complete renewal" of his party after suffering a crushing election defeat that ended 16 years in power.

Orban lost on Sunday to political newcomer, conservative pro-EU Peter Magyar, whose party won a two-thirds parliamentary majority in a vote marked by record turnout in the central European country.
