Excitement in Hungary: Rumors about a sex video from Orbán challenger

The Hungarian opposition figure and leader of the promising Tisza movement, Péter Hungarianwrote on X that he had been threatened with publishing a sex video for a long time. “I suspect that they are planning to release a secret footage, possibly faked, that shows my then-girlfriend and I having sexual intercourse,” Magyar said. Hungary is in the middle of an election campaign and a new parliament will be elected on April 12th.

Magyar emphasized: “Yes, I am a 45-year-old man and have a sex life. With an adult partner.” At the same time, he pointed out that he had three underage children whose protection would be jeopardized by publication. He will not submit to any blackmail: “Fake as you please, I will not allow myself to be blackmailed or intimidated.” Magyar was once a member of the Fidesz party himself and was once with the then justice minister Judit Varga married.

Magyar rejected this account. He believes it is possible that recordings could have been manipulated. Radnai told Hungarian media that he did not know the room pictured. He had heard that people wanted to associate him with a homosexual relationship, but these claims were unfounded.

Magyar himself wrote on X that the Hungarian government wanted to distract from another topic: the investigative portal Telex has to a battery factory of the South Korean company Samsung researched, which is located in the small Hungarian town of Göd near Budapest.
