US Embassy Takes Down Pressman’s Statements from Website

• 9 Feb 2025 6:54 AM

The United States embassy in Budapest has removed statements by former ambassador David Pressman from its website, Hirado.hu reported.

At the portal's inquiry, the embassy said it had introduced guidelines to archive certain content so that its website should fully reflect the policies of the Trump administration.

The portal also quoted Bryan E Leib, who will possibly follow Pressman in the post, as saying that the embassy had removed his predecessor's remarks, which he labelled as toxic.
