Un om de încredere al lui Viktor Orban, reținut în Ungaria

Former Hungarian central bank governor Gyorgy Matolcsy was detained on suspicion of economic fraud and using a forged document. His arrest is part of a broader investigation into financial misconduct during Viktor Orban's administration, initiated by the new Prime Minister Peter Magyar. Matolcsy, who led the central bank from 2013 to 2025, is accused of misappropriating public funds through foundations funded by the central bank. The new government has prioritized investigating alleged financial abuses by former officials, establishing a National Office for Asset Recovery and Protection to expedite these inquiries. Matolcsy denies any wrongdoing, while the investigation continues to uncover serious corruption cases.
