🇭🇺 Spy scandal in Brussels

European media accuse Hungary of running a spy ring inside EU institutions between 2012 and 2018. Reports claim Orbán’s diplomats in Brussels recruited Hungarian officials to leak internal documents on rule of law and migration. Yet no prosecutions followed, and the evidence remains anonymous and circumstantial.

Budapest calls it another smear timed to pressure Hungary over Ukraine aid and frozen EU funds. The story, driven by NGO-linked outlets, mirrors earlier “fabricated scandals” used to brand Hungary as Europe’s rogue state. Political motives seem clearer than any espionage trail.

Once again, dissent becomes suspicion. Brussels’ moral authority shrinks when it polices politics through scandal instead of dialogue.
