00:00The leader of Hungary's opposition, Peter Magyar, held a rally in the capital Budapest
00:05in an effort to continue mobilizing support ahead of next year's election.
00:10Magyar, who was incumbent Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's main political rival, addressed supporters at the event.
00:16He promised to reverse Orbán's divisive stances and policies which have largely alienated Hungary within Europe and the West at large.
00:30Magyarország will be a new member of the NATO's home, and Magyarország will be a new member of the European Union again.
00:52Criticizing his opponent, who rose to power in 2010 and has since held a large two-thirds majority in parliament,
00:59Magyar vowed to dismantle his systems and start from scratch.
01:03This system cannot be reformed, it cannot be opened, it cannot be done properly, it cannot be done properly.
01:11This system cannot be done properly. And we will do it properly, democratically, but completely done properly.
01:21Thousands of supporters attending the event believed the upcoming election could spring about different results.
01:27Magyarország will be voted for Magyarország, and Orbán Viktor will be punished for a lot of loss, which he did in the country.
01:38You believe in that?
01:38Very. I believed in 2022, but now I believe in that.
01:43We can feel a change of change, and we are curious about what the situation is.
01:49Parliamentary elections have not yet been scheduled, but are expected by April next year.
01:55Recent polls suggest Magyar has slightly edged ahead in popularity over Orbán,
02:00with a campaign aimed at addressing economic and social issues facing the country.
