Hungary’s Prime Minister Péter Magyar says he will meet chess grandmaster Judit Polgár on Monday to ask whether she would accept the role of president. Multiple outlets report that Polgár would be nominated to replace the current president, Tamas Sulyok, in Hungary’s largely ceremonial head-of-state position. The proposal follows last week’s constitutional amendment, which removes Sulyok from office and creates a vacancy for a new president. Magyar publicly frames the idea as a bid for national unity and for a president “every Hungarian can be proud of,” citing Polgár’s long-standing prominence and achievements in chess. Reporting also notes that Polgár has little direct involvement with political parties. Several sources describe her as widely regarded as the greatest female chess player, and as a world-class competitor. Magyar’s plan centers on a personal discussion with Polgár before any nomination or acceptance decision. Coverage across outlets largely agrees on the timing of the meeting, the identity of the candidate, and the constitutional context that is prompting the change in the presidency.
