Orbán cabinet tries to prove that opposition leader Péter Magyar is a tool of Ukraine’s influence operations

Change language:

Hungary’s ruling Fidesz has proposed convening parliament’s national security committee over opposition Tisza Party leader Péter Magyar’s connection to Ukraine’s influence operations, the party’s group leader said on Facebook on Friday.

Máté Kocsis said it was vital to “clarify new information that surfaced in the press today on a connection between Ukrainian influence operations and the Tisza Party”. He said Hungary’s secret services would have to conduct a thorough investigation into Magyar’s connection to a high-ranking officer in Ukraine’s military public administration.

“In light of all this, we have initiated convening another meeting of the national security committee for next Tuesday where we will request a briefing on these matters, and, if possible, we will propose releasing the available information to the public,” Kocsis said.

  1. The following is true and therefore no smear. Orban is incredibly fat and unappealing and Magyar is fit and handsome. My suggestion is that it is not Peter Magyar but fat man Orban who should be making the walk from Budapest to Nagyvarad.

  2. Weight & “Luggage” the state he has delivered Hungary to, the loss of respect and trust in the name of Hungary, his distillation of DEMOCRACY that Orban has inflicted upon Hungary.
    Orban should take a walk or better still be MARCHED out of Hungary, to the “Xanadu” place that is his “head” space.
    Hungary its citizens in millions have paid, a HEFTY price as has our country – Hungary, and we will until such time, in the spring of 2026, the name Victor Orban his Fidesz Government are ERODED – removed from being the Government of Hungary.

  3. Now, just as a fun thought exercise, imagine the names were changed and this was published between, say…1945 and 1991 or so.
