In Budapest, independent politician Akos Hadhazy leads tours highlighting the alleged corruption of Prime Minister Viktor Orban. He discusses Buda Castle as a symbol of power and waste, criticizing Orban's move to the castle and his consolidation of authority, which mirrors undemocratic practices. Hadhazy claims that the ongoing construction represents cronyism and an effort by Orban to elevate his status while undermining Hungary's democratic institutions, raising concerns among political scientists worldwide about the implications for democracy in Hungary.
Hadhazy describes the Buda Castle as a "symbolic place for corruption, power and the waste of public money," criticizing Orban's governmental shifts.
Hadhazy points out that Orban's decision to move his offices to the castle reflects a desire to "play king," contrasting this with past dictators.
