"The wiretapping of a government member is a serious attack on Hungary. I have instructed the Minister of Justice to immediately investigate the information."
"The allegations that are being raised here are very serious. Negotiations between EU foreign ministers are confidential and require a relationship of trust."
"[A] relationship of trust between member states, and between them and the institution, is fundamental for the work of the EU."
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has initiated an investigation into the alleged wiretapping of Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto. This follows a Washington Post report claiming Szijjarto shared sensitive EU negotiation details with Russia's Sergey Lavrov. Szijjarto dismissed the report as fake news. The European Commission has called for an investigation, emphasizing the importance of trust among EU member states. The German Foreign Ministry acknowledged the seriousness of the allegations but did not directly implicate Szijjarto.
