Hungary: Opposition leader accuses Orban of Watergate-style spying plot

Source: Politico

“Hungarian opposition leader Peter Magyar on Sunday accused Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s government of spying on him and his staff. Speaking at a press conference in Budapest, Magyar said he was blowing the lid off what he called a ‘Hungarian Watergate,’ referring to the wiretapping political scandal that led to United States President Richard Nixon’s resignation in 1974. ‘Intelligence officers who serve their country and not a mafia government have confided in me that my apartment, our offices and our vehicles have been bugged for months,’ said Magyar, who leads the opposition Tisza party.” (11/11/24)
