Viktor Orbán (31 May 1963)[1] is a Hungarian right-wing politician[2][3][4] and current Prime Minister of Hungary. He is a member of the right-wing political group, the Fidesz-Hungarian Civic Union. Orbán had also served as Prime Minister from 1998 to 2002.[5]
He was born in the small village of Alcsútdoboz. He studied law at the Eötvös Loránd University of Budapest and graduated in 1987.[1]
During his second period (or time) as prime minister: he said (during Russia's invasion of Ukraine) that "Hungary will support all European Union sanctions against Russia".[6]
He is a controversial figure, particularly due to his nationalistic, pro-family and anti-gay marriage ideology, although Orbán says he is not homophobic.[7]
