The so-called "pager issue" poses no security risk to Hungary, the state secretary for international communication and relations said on Facebook.
The opposition Democratic Coalition (DK) has criticised the 15 billion forints (EUR 37.9m) earmarked by the government to be spent on the August 20 firework display - you can see a video of the fireworks display in Budapest below in this article.
The number of media outlets taking a critical stance of the government has been steadily growing since the last change of government in 2010, the Nézőpont Institute said in its 2024 Press Freedom report on Hungary.
The opposition Respect and Freedom (Tisza) Party’s priority is to “take our country back” from the government “which made Hungary the most corrupt and second poorest member state” in the European Union, Péter Magyar, the party’s deputy leader, said in Brussels.
