The Dobrev Shadow Cabinet was a shadow cabinet in Hungary formed by the Democratic Coalition (DK) party in autumn 2022. According to their statement, its purpose was to build a credible alternative to the incumbent Fifth Orbán Government.

History

[edit]

On September 16, 2022, the Democratic Coalition announced that it would form a shadow cabinet. The party's presidency asked Klára Dobrev to lead it, and she accepted the request.

Following the party's poor performance (8%) in the 2024 European Parliament election in Hungary on June 9, Klára Dobrev announced the dissolution of the shadow cabinet the next day, on June 10, 2024.[1]
