The daily Magyar Nemzet has also made mention of the fact that organizations linked to US financier George Soros may have provided financial support for a smear campaign designed to discredit the St. Francis Foundation of Deva headed by Father Csaba Bojte. The known stock-exchange speculator George Soros has donated millions to the portals that's published articles attacking the monk.
