The government demands an immediate response and explanation from Ukraine regarding cash shipments to Hungary, as "it is reasonable to ask whether this involves money from the Ukrainian war mafia," Foreign Minister Peter Szijjártó said on Friday.
Janos Hajdu, director-general of Hungary’s counter-terrorism force TEK and a former chief bodyguard of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, was added on Friday to the Myrotvorets (Peacemaker) website, a database of Ukraine’s enemies run by civilian activists.
Foreign-funded pressure groups are preparing to challenge the legitimacy of Hungary's election results, the Sovereignty Protection Office said in a statement.
Opposition parties reacted to Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's speech assessing the state of the nation over the past year.
