I call upon President Zelenskyy to immediately order his agents back home

I call upon President Zelenskyy to immediately order his agents back home, and to respect the will of the Hungarians, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said in a video he posted on Facebook on Thursday.

Mr Orbán said as election day approaches, the Ukrainian president has turned Hungary into an operational field for Ukrainian intelligence services.

He has activated agents previously embedded in Hungarian politics, and they are working at full strength: Ukrainian operatives and IT specialists paid by the Ukrainians are moving in and out of the Tisza Party, he said.

Mr Orbán observed that there had never been an election in Hungary in which foreign intelligence services had intervened so deeply.

They are working to ensure that after the election a pro-Ukraine government is formed in Hungary, one that supports the war, cuts Hungary off from cheap Russian energy, and hands over the Hungarians' money to Ukraine, he added.

The Hungarian authorities are continuously working to counter foreign interference and are doing everything to ensure that Hungarians can vote on their future without external manipulation, the Prime Minister laid down.

"I call upon President Zelenskyy to immediately order his agents back home, and to respect the will of the Hungarians," Mr Orbán said in conclusion.
