The number of Ukrainian spies exposed in Hungary is growing, the minister heading the Prime Minister's Office told a regular press conference on Thursday. "The first was Szabolcs Panyi, who has been spying on his own country in cooperation with a foreign state, and the IT experts working for the Tisza Party," Gergely Gulyas said.
A new case of collusion graver than ever before has come to light with the eruption of the Tisza spy agent scandal, "which clearly proves that preparations are under way" for a pro-Ukraine "agent government", the parliamentary state secretary of the Prime Minister's Office said on Tuesday.
Tisza Party prime ministerial candidate Péter Magyar declared on Monday that he will not wear a bullet-proof vest or other defensive attire after an apparent attempt to assault him was thwarted.
The Kremlin has endorsed a covert influence operation aimed at bolstering Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán ahead of April’s parliamentary elections, according to reporting by the Financial Times on 11 March 2026.
