An ethical probe has been requested into the directors of the National Opera and its ballet company. The inquiry follows questions over the company’s internal operations, adding a layer of institutional scrutiny to a cultural sector already navigating a complicated relationship with the state.
The government is demanding the return of 21 billion forints from various spectator sports organizations. At the same time, columnist and Fidesz co-founder Zsolt Bayer has cleared his accounts with the National Cultural Fund for his newspaper writings; in the current climate, even a routine filing by a government ally is a matter of public record.
Travel logs for the Foreign Minister show he has visited Russia more frequently than Germany, a clear illustration of the current diplomatic compass. Separately, a company head linked to a fictitious invoice case has been moved from custody to house arrest, though she remains forbidden from leaving her residence.
