László Kövér (born 29 December 1959) is a Hungarian politician who served as the speaker of the National Assembly of Hungary from 2010 to 2026. He is the longest-serving speaker of the unicameral parliament. Under his capacity as speaker, he was also twice acting president of Hungary in 2012 after the resignation of Pál Schmitt, and again in 2024 after the resignation of Katalin Novák.

A founding member of Fidesz since 1988, he was a Member of Parliament between 1990 and 2026. He served as Minister without portfolio for Civilian Intelligence Services from 1998 to 2000, during the first Viktor Orbán administration.
