Peter Szijjártó s-a angajat la BYD, pe care l-a ajutat când era ministru să deschidă prima fabrică din Europa. Acum este anchetat

Hungary is investigating former Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó regarding his role in securing a leadership position at Chinese automaker BYD. He appeared before a parliamentary committee to address concerns about potential conflicts of interest during his tenure. Szijjártó left politics in July to join BYD, which is the world's largest electric vehicle manufacturer. Allegations suggest he facilitated government subsidies for BYD while in office, including an agreement for the company's first European factory near Szeged. The new Hungarian government has announced an inquiry into Szijjártó's decisions related to BYD's investment, amid broader scrutiny of foreign investments in the battery production sector.
