The leader of Hungary's opposition Tisza Party called for "a boycott of the propaganda media's products" at a demonstration held at the headquarters of MTVA, the Media Service Support and Asset Management Fund (MTVA), on Saturday afternoon.
Budapest has "passed the flood defence test", Gergely Karacsony, the city's mayor, told a press conference held near the River Danube on Saturday.
The Hungarian government will request that the European Union compensate the country for costs incurred in protecting the bloc's external borders, and is ready to sue the EU to that end, Gergely Gulyas, the head of the Prime Minister's Office, told a regular press conference.
Mayor Gergely Karácsony is proposing to cut board positions on city-owned companies by two-thirds and reduce supervisory board roles to near the legal minimum for the new term of office, according to his Facebook post.
