Most – Híd (with the addition: az együttműködés pártja - strana spolupráce ; German bridge, party of cooperation ; mostly abbreviated as MH , more rarely MH ) is a political party in Slovakia . It was founded in June 2009 by the former chairman of the Hungarian Community Party (SMK), Béla Bugár , along with other former members of this party.

The party represents the interests of the Hungarian minority in Slovakia , but advocates peaceful coexistence and cooperation between Hungarians and Slovaks. Thus it positions itself as an alternative to the purely ethnic-Magyar SMK.

In the parliamentary elections on June 12, 2010 , the party received 8.12% of the vote and thus had 14 seats in the National Council. Four seats went to candidates from Občianska konservatívna strana , with which the MH had entered into a list connection. It provided three ministers in the Radičová government .

In the parliamentary elections on March 10, 2012 , the party won 13 seats. Due to the absolute majority of the Smer - sociálna demokracia , she switched to the opposition.

In the 2016 parliamentary elections , the party was able to roughly maintain its result with 6.5%; it secured 11 of the 150 parliamentary seats. The party joined the newly formed four-party coalition under Prime Minister Robert Fico and provided the Minister of Justice and Environment Minister Lucia Žitňanská and László Solymos .
