Biography

Kovács was born in Budapest on 15 March 1976 as the younger son of Dr. Etele Kovács, vice dean at the University of Physical Education (TF) and Valéria Végh, a former elementary school teacher.

During his presidency the Jobbik entered into a coalition with the Hungarian Justice and Life Party (see: MIÉP–Jobbik Third Way Alliance of Parties) for the 2006 Hungarian parliamentary election. After the election, where the party alliance failed to win any parliamentary seats, he was succeeded by Gábor Vona, Kovács became one of the deputy chairmen of the Jobbik.

He did not support the establishment of the Magyar Gárda, as a result he left the party along with two prominent founding members on 10 March 2008.[2]
