Russia expert: We know of at least three Russian government-affiliated organizations that are interfering in the Hungarian elections

The 2022 parliamentary election in Hungary occurred shortly after the Ukraine war began, making foreign policy a key issue. András Rácz, a Russia expert, highlighted the rising awareness of foreign policy in Hungary, particularly regarding the chant 'Russians, go home!' He criticized the Hungarian government's credibility loss within the EU and NATO due to leaked phone calls between officials. Rácz noted that Russian disinformation has infiltrated Hungarian media, fueling anti-Ukrainian sentiment. He expressed concern over potential violence on election day, suggesting the government may use provocateurs to justify police intervention. Rácz emphasized the importance of trust in national institutions and warned against undermining them.
