“It’s been a rough week. We could barely keep up,” PM Orban wrote in his weekly circular to Digital Civic Circle (DPK) members. Referring first to the Szolo Street disinformation scandal, he recalled that the man caught by the security services had been procuring adult women in a prostitution ring and that criminal proceedings were now underway.
“How this turned into accusations of pedophilia against government parties and ministers is hard to comprehend with a sound mind. Perhaps it’s not even possible or necessary for that matter.

On EU matters, he reminded that Brussels had refused to lift Peter Magyar's European Parliamentary immunity, in essence shielding a man who committed crimes in Hungary. “Now they’ve got him in their hands; he’s a free man only as long as they want him to be,” Viktor Orban wrote.
