In addition to the expected low turnout, the Hungarian party from the highlands, the Alliance, has a chance to enter the Slovak parliament in the early election to be held on September 30, political scientist Tamás Lánczi said on Kossuth radio's Sunday Newspaper program.
In the interview, Tamás Lánczi said:
we are facing a decisive election, because after more than a decade there is a chance again to have Hungarian representatives in Bratislava.
He noted: it was possible to hear from Slovak politicians in recent years that they would represent the cause of the Hungarians, but we can see that only the Hungarians can represent the cause of the Hungarians.
According to the political scientist, Slovakia is apathetic and politically disillusioned, voters are skeptical, turnout is expected to be low, and this creates an opportunity for Hungarians.
According to the surveys, the Alliance has a chance of reaching the entrance threshold, especially if their Slovak compatriots do not vote in large numbers, he said, adding:
three weeks is a short time, during which the Hungarian party must conduct a very intensive campaign in order to make this chance a reality.
Tamás Lánczi called mother tongue education the most important issue for Hungarians.
In response to the question of whether there is a chance that the Alliance will take on a coalition role if it enters the parliament, and how Smer, Robert Fico's party, which is considered the most likely, stands now, Tamás Lánczi explained:
many parties run, and the Slovak electoral system gives the opportunity for many small parties competing in roughly the same weight group to enter the legislature.
According to his analysis, Smer stands out among these - at the expense of the others - because Robert Fico took up topics that are very interesting to Slovaks, but also frustrating, such as the economy, unemployment, the drop in real wages, and is able to channel the fears and emotions related to them.
Tamás Lánczi explained that although Smer is a "textbook" left-wing party, the strange situation has arisen that Fico's party is actually against the globalists, and in his opinion, it receives a lot of attacks (also from Soros organizers operating in Slovakia) because does not want to subordinate Slovakia to globalist and internationalist forces.
The political scientist called it a very sensitive issue, who forms a coalition with whom, but from the point of view of the motherland and the V4s, he considered that Fico's victory would be favorable, which can only be relative, he will not gain an absolute majority.
He believed
there is a danger that troubled times will come in Slovakia, and the winner will not find a coalition partner, because, according to his position, Brussels and overseas can interfere in this.
Fico has the political ability to bring a coalition together if he is allowed to do so from abroad, he said, explaining that if there are no coalition partners, the chaos that has characterized Slovakia for at least a year will continue.
At the end of the conversation, Tamás Lánczi said: from the Hungarian point of view, the most ideal thing would be for Fico to find coalition partners - it would be good if the Alliance was there - that way the situation in Slovakia would be settled, and the other V4 countries would have a negotiating partner also, there would be someone to sit down with, who has legitimacy behind it.
