📜 Summoned

A parliamentary committee investigating enforcement abuses has summoned Antal Rogán, who previously served as Head of the Cabinet of the Prime Minister under Viktor Orbán, for a personal hearing. This marks a new, formal step in the ongoing scrutiny of figures from the former government. Meanwhile, Member of the National Assembly János Pócs has responded to being banned from the Hungarian Parliament. Prime Minister Péter Magyar criticized the hypocrisy of those now scrutinizing the Lezsák affair and historical informant files, stating that those who have never taken responsibility for their lies are now making accusations. This comes as the government plans to introduce an emergency law to prevent private equity funds from rescuing billions in assets. The new budget aims to balance tax breaks with special taxes. Additionally, a drone defense system was reportedly deployed to protect former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán at the Karmelita Monastery, and the government is adopting a stricter approach towards MOHU concerning the waste management law.
