VSquare: PM Orbán’s only son, Captain Gáspár, may be creating new Hungarian super secret service
Orbán Jr is staffing “a Hungarian NSC”, a Hungarian super secret service body similar to the US president’s National Security Council. That is what an unnamed source of VSquare talked about. It seems the prime minister’s only son’s secret Chad mission was not in vain. Instead, it was part of something bigger.
Footballer, religious leader, military officer
Gáspár Orbán is a strange man. He is the only son of Prime Minister Orbán and already had a crooked career in Hungary and the United Kingdom. He was a footballer, then became a religious leader. In 2019, he joined Hungary’s military and even finished a 9-month-long course at the Sandhurst Royal Military Academy in the United Kingdom. Prince Harry and Prince William finished their studies in the illustrious military academy before. We wrote about that in THIS article.
His name popped up again in the news about a weird Hungarian military mission to Chad, France’s only bastion in the North African region. Direkt36, Le Monde and VSquare discovered that Captain Orbán was a member of that mission even though he tried to hide behind face masks, columns, and other people in each photo taken. HERE is our article about this strange issue. HERE you may check out some photos of him in the African country.
A new Hungarian super secret service is on the horizon
An unnamed informant of VSquare said Orbán Jr is part of a larger project. He is working on organising and staffing a new Hungarian super secret service for his father, which would be the Hungarian equivalent of the US president’s National Security Council. Therefore, he has his room in the Carmelite Monastery (Viktor Orbán’s prime ministerial office) even though he has no official position in the administration.
“His father wants to keep him close and keep one eye on him,” the informant said. Orbán Jr refers to Chad as a startup in conversations, VSquare wrote.
That is because Orbán Jr believes Hungary needs more similar projects to extend its influence in far-away regions and find new business opportunities.
According to the informant having direct knowledge of the matter, Captain Orbán is working under Marcell Bíró, PM Orbán’s new chief national security advisor. Mr Bíró lacks political ambitions and gained the trust of PM Orbán.
Not just intelligence, business too
“Bíró’s institution will basically oversee three branches, two of which – one dealing with intelligence and the other with military matters – already exist”, the media outlet said. Orbán Jr is now creating and staffing a branch aimed to deal with sensitive diplomatic matters and foreign policy. They even prepare to create a situation room like the one the US president has.
Furthermore, Orbán Jr’s task will be to keep an eye on far-away business opportunities.
Captain Orbán bears informal power because his father fears a public outcry if he has his son a position.
“If the Prime Minister tasks his own son with certain sensitive tasks in extraordinary situations, I could accept that. But letting him build an institution and giving orders to people, without any formal position or authorisation, it’s just completely abnormal,” the government-connected source told Szabolcs Panyi, VSquare’s Hungarian reporter.

No need for anti-nepotism laws. It is for Hungary´s own good! And learn from the best. Just look at what President Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, were able to achieve. America was so lucky to have them on board. In Mr. Trump´s own words, “only the best and most serious people”.
Saudi Arabia thought so highly of Mr. Kushner that they entrusted him with USD 2 BILLION (not HUF).
Fun fact:
“A panel that screens investments for the main Saudi sovereign wealth fund cited concerns about the proposed deal with Mr. Kushner’s newly formed private equity firm, Affinity Partners, previously undisclosed documents show.
Those objections included: “the inexperience of the Affinity Fund management”; the possibility that the kingdom would be responsible for “the bulk of the investment and risk”; due diligence on the fledgling firm’s operations that found them “unsatisfactory in all aspects”; a proposed asset management fee that “seems excessive”; and “public relations risks” from Mr. Kushner’s prior role as a senior adviser to his father-in-law, former President Donald J. Trump, according to minutes of the panel’s meeting last June 30.”

Good thing Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler, overruled the panel!
Great guy, Mr. Kushner. Great family.
Norbert, you have the record for posting some of the stupidest garbage on this page. Congratulations, on being a really low functioning individual.
Bernard, why the personal attack on Norbert? Why fighting historical points with hysterical points? Be better?
