Peter Magyar accuses outgoing foreign minister of destroying confidential documents

Source: Euronews

Hungary's Prime Minister elect, Péter Magyar accused outgoing Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó of shredding confidential documents.

-snip-

"I just received the information, I'll share this with you. Many people thought that Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó had disappeared, since he couldn't be seen yesterday during Viktor Orbán's victory speech" Magyar said.

"Today at 10 a.m. he appeared at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and since then, he and his most direct colleagues have been shredding documents related to the sanctions materials."

"This is what is happening in Hungary right now. We have known for days that the destruction of documents has begun, not only in the ministries, but also in other background institutions linked to the elites of Orbán" Magyar said.

Hungary needs to do a full-on purge and keep an eye on the wealthy mf'ers who don't give a 💩 about human rights. They have a lot of work ahead of them. This will be interesting going forward.
