To add some credibility to its statements, Orban’s team claimed there was supposedly “propaganda” and made several new attacks against Ukraine.<\/p>\n “The information from the Washington Post is completely false, pro-Ukrainian propaganda. On the other hand, it is a fact that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky publicly threatened to kill the Prime Minister of Hungary during the election campaign,” the Hungarian government stated.<\/p>\n Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto, a loyal supporter of Orban, also criticized the article, accusing Ukraine and the Hungarian opposition of inflating “noise around the terrorist acts.” According to him, the opposition party “Tisa” and its sponsors are allegedly concocting “crazy conspiracy theories.”<\/p>\n Szijjarto believes that the information about a Russian connection to the assassination attempt is supposedly an “attempt to destabilize the situation in the country” ahead of the elections.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n It is worth noting that on March 21, the American newspaper The Washington Post reported that Russian foreign intelligence had developed a plan to stage an assassination attempt on Orban. The “attack” was supposed to change the course of the campaign, which Orban was set to lose.<\/p>\n The Kremlin reacted hysterically – the spokesperson for the Russian dictator, Dmitry Peskov, called the report “disinformation.” However, against the backdrop of information that the Kremlin is assisting Orban in the election campaign, the statement appears unconvincing.<\/p>\n By the way, the leader of the Hungarian opposition party “Tisa,” Peter Madyar, publicly accused Prime Minister Orban of inviting agents of the Russian GRU to Hungary to interfere in the parliamentary elections scheduled for April 12. Madyar is demanding that Orban urgently expel the Russians from Hungary.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Budapest hastily denied the information from the American newspaper and typically lied about the propaganda.
