Szijjarto not ruling out neighboring countrys interference in 2022 elections in Hungary

Szijjarto not ruling out ’neighboring country’s’ interference in 2022 elections in Hungary Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in an interview with RIA Novosti he did not rule out that a “neighboring country“ could have participated in interference in the 2022 Hungarian parliamentary elections. “I am not quite sure that the country [Ukraine] led by the president you have mentioned was not part of it [interference in the 2022 elections in Hungary],“ Szijjarto emphasized. In late March 2022, Szijjarto stated that then-Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba had called the Ukrainian embassy in Budapest to discuss the possibility of influencing the election results. “We can’t exclude it. At that time, there were signs for that,“ the minister stressed in response to a clarifying question about whether he would rule out the possibility that a “neighboring country“ could have played a role in interfering in the Hungarian elections.
