Peter Magyar said in a statement on Wednesday that his opposition Tisza Party is opening up a graduated selection process for party officials, and he warned any self-appointed political wannabes not to try to latch onto the party.
The government is launching a new National Consultation, this time on the issue of economic neutrality, Prime Minister's Office leader Gergely Gulyas announced at a Wednesday press conference after the cabinet met on Tuesday.
Leader of the opposition Tisza Party Peter Magyar on Tuesday accused ruling Fidesz of having "cheated" Hungarians by "preaching" about a rural, family and child-friendly, bourgeois Hungary while making the country "the poorest and most corrupt country in the European Union".
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European People's Party leader Manfred Weber are seeking to "topple the sovereigntist Hungarian government" and replace it with a "Brussels-style administration", Prime Minister Viktor Orbán told public radio in an interview broadcast.
