Over the past 16 years prime minister Viktor Orbán has turned Hungary into what he calls an ‘illiberal democracy’, using a parliamentary supermajority to effect constitutional control over institutions, targeting minorities, political opponents and the independent media in the process.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán convened an emergency defence council for Sunday afternoon after a phone call with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic.
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.
