Hungarian foreign minister was accused of passing information from closed-door talks to Moscow.
The EU is limiting the flow of confidential material to Hungary and leaders are meeting in smaller groups — as Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned of long-standing suspicions Viktor Orbán’s government is sharing information with Russia.
But there will not be any formal EU response to a fresh set of allegations because of the possible impact on the Hungarian election on April 12, according to five European diplomats and officials who told POLITICO they were concerned about the risk of Budapest leaking sensitive information to the Kremlin.
“The news that Orbán’s people inform Moscow about EU Council meetings in every detail shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone,” Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, who has backed Hungarian opposition leader Péter Magyar in the election, wrote on X on Sunday. “We’ve had our suspicions about that for a long time. That’s one reason why I take the floor only when strictly necessary and say just as much as necessary.”
Act like a puppet, get treated like a puppet.
The Hungarian version of FAFO
But there will not be any formal EU response to a fresh set of allegations because of the possible impact on the Hungarian election on April 12
After April 12 though… there still won’t be any response.
Well, after the election, hopefully Orban and his party will have lost power.
Only now?
