In an interview on Hajdú Péter's show, he expressed confidence that Fidesz would not fail in the 2026 elections but acknowledged their preparation for any outcome.

Ongoing Scandal Impact

During the discussion, Lázár addressed a scandal from earlier this year that continues to trouble the government. He emphasized that high-profile resignations, including that of President Novák Katalin and Justice Minister Varga Judit, represent significant setbacks. Lázár remarked that Novák does not fit within their political framework, adding that the real issue stems from the ongoing scandal itself.

Reflection on Past Challenges

When questioned about his time outside the government in 2018, Lázár candidly shared that it was a challenging period for him, marked by some inappropriate behavior from colleagues. He clarified that the controversy he experienced was not solely about mentions in the news but rather about broader issues affecting the government.

The latest episode of "Beköltözve Hajdú Péterhez" will air on Friday at 7 PM on YouTube, where viewers can catch the full interview.
