Bratislava, April 12 (TASR) - The Slovak-Hungarian Most-Hid party isn't happy about the extremist Jobbik-Movement for a Better Hungary getting into Hungarian Parliament in the elections on Sunday, Most-Hid founder and chairman Bela Bugar told TASR on Monday.
"Nonetheless, it's a fact now, and it's up to the election winner (Fidesz) to maintain the (Hungarian) foreign policy within such boundaries that would prevent Jobbik becoming involved," said Bugar, adding that Most-Hid is ready to help Fidesz in distancing itself from Jobbik.
The former SMK head said that the first round of the Hungarian elections didn't bring any surprises. "Fidesz will certainly fight to gain a constitutional majority in Parliament (in the second round on April 25), and it has good chance of accomplishing this," said Bugar.
In the first round Fidesz secured 206 votes in the 386-member Parliament, thus ending the eight-year rule of the Socialists.
