Change of power in Hungary: What is Austria's view of this?

Political landslide in Europe. After 16 years as prime minister of Hungary, Viktor Orban was coldly voted out last weekend. Challenger Peter Magyar won a decisive victory, so big that he can change the Constitution. With its negative attitude towards the European Union, Hungary has so far been one of the troublemakers in the Community under Orban. In the meantime, the victory frenzy of recent days has subsided and journalist colleague Martin Bauer reports on how the turnaround is being assessed in Austria.
