The White House to Telex: report which mentions Hungarian corruption written by economists, no mention of Pressman 😔

The White House, represented by deputy press secretary Anna Kelly, stated they have no additional comments regarding Hungary's mention in a US report on trade barriers, which cited corruption as a reason for tariffs. This follows claims by Hungarian Minister Péter Szijjártó that the report's content was influenced by former US Ambassador David Pressman. The report, published in March, outlines economic practices affecting trade, linking it to tariffs imposed by Donald Trump. The Biden administration sanctioned Antal Rogán for corruption, prompting a reaction from the Hungarian government. US companies have faced corruption issues in Hungary, exemplified by cases involving Microsoft and Bunge.
