BREAKING: PM Magyar to Ask Chess Legend Judit Polgár to Become Hungary’s President

Hungary’s Prime Minister Péter Magyar says he will ask chess legend Judit Polgár to become Hungary’s next President. Magyar, in a Facebook post, said he will meet her Monday and ask whether she would accept the largely ceremonial post, which she would hold until a planned new constitution takes effect or for up to five years. The move comes after constitutional changes ended President Tamas Sulyok’s term, setting up a parliamentary election for the successor. Polgár has not yet responded publicly to the proposal.
