Opposition MP Ákos Hadházy has reported Prime Minister Viktor Orbán on suspicion of misuse of funds and fraud because of Orbán’s English-language website, primeminister.hu.
Hadházy said on Facebook that the Cabinet Office signed a Ft 74 million contract on March 21, 2021 for the operation of the prime minister’s English-language website from March 15, 2021 to December 31, 2022.
The website should have functioned until the end of December, 2022 but the last post was registered on April 22, 2022, after which “nobody bothered with it”, he said.
The website no longer exists, but redirects the reader to the prime minister’s official website.
Hadházy said such a website could have been produced for Ft 15-20 million, so the fee specified in the contract is many times overpriced.
