Kosa: Govt wants further development of all localities

The government wants all localities to further develop, irrespective of whether they will be governed by the allied ruling Fidesz-Christian Democratic parties or the opposition, Fidesz's campaign chief for the local elections said on Monday morning, commenting on the outcome of Sunday's vote. In the ballot a total of 1.8 million people voted for Fidesz-KDNP across the country as against 1.36 million supporting the opposition, Lajos Kosa told public news channel M1. "This gives the ruling alliance a comfortable majority," he said, adding that Fidesz and KDNP would accept such a result in any general election. "It has also become evident that Hungary is a democracy," said Kosa, who is also deputy leader of Fidesz.
