Change language:

A former journalist of left-leaning news portals 24.hu and Index.hu in a leaked interview has spoken candidly about how international NGOs “hold all the cards” when it comes to reporting on Hungary in foreign media, the state secretary for international communications and relations has said.

Citing an article in the daily Magyar Nemzet, Zoltán Kovács said on Twitter on Thursday: “Why am I not surprised? Partly because these statements are not the only ones made recently by liberals on the topic of biased reporting about Hungary. I honestly can’t wait to see what’s next.”

Most NGOs, including Amnesty International and “the ones financed by George Soros, exercise huge influence over foreign reporters writing about Hungary in the international press,” Kovács said said in an English-language post on abouthungary.hu. “For example I was invited to Brussels and Strasburg to report on individual events.

According to the journalist,

He betrayed his own fellow Jews during WW2 and pointed them out to the Nazi’s and he meddles in the affairs of sovereign nations globally trying to usher in a one world governmet that will be more tyrannical than any one ever before seen on this planet. Why their is not an international arrest warrant out for him is beyond belief.
