After the end of the Orban era in Hungary, it was alleged that some names linked to the leader rapidly moved their wealth abroad. It was claimed that assets were transferred to Middle Eastern and Asian countries, while some individuals turned to the US. Election winner Peter Magyar argued that oligarchs were fleeing with their wealth and called on authorities to intervene; allegations that documents were destroyed also came to light.
While developments suggesting the end of Viktor Orban's era in Hungary have caused a major stir in the country, remarkable allegations have emerged following the election results. According to a report by The Guardian, it has been claimed that individuals close to Orban have begun rapidly transferring their wealth abroad.
ALLEGATION OF WEALTH TRANSFERRED BY PRIVATE JETS The report stated that circles enriched during Orban's 16-year rule have been trying to move their assets to safe zones after the election defeat. It was alleged that wealth was transferred via private jets departing from Vienna, and some individuals have also shifted their investments abroad.
MONEY FLOW TO MIDDLE EASTERN AND ASIAN COUNTRIES According to sources, circles close to Orban have moved their assets to countries such as Saudi Arabia, Oman, and the United Arab Emirates, while some individuals have turned to Australia and Singapore. It was also claimed that certain high-ranking figures are exploring work and residency opportunities in the US.
Péter Magyar HARSH ACCUSATIONS FROM THE NEW LEADER The leader of the Tisza Party, Péter Magyar, who won the elections, alleged that oligarchs close to Orban have smuggled "tens of billions of forints" abroad and called on authorities to act. Magyar argued that these individuals should be prevented from leaving the country.
ALLEGATION THAT DOCUMENTS ARE BEING DESTROYED Magyar also claimed that some critical documents from the Orban era have been destroyed in the post-election process. Some institutions close to the government denied these allegations, stating that only unnecessary documents have been discarded.
US CONNECTION AND NEW PLANS The report also noted that some individuals close to Orban are making alternative plans by leveraging their connections with Republican circles in the US. It was claimed that the US is seen as a "safe haven" for some groups.
ORBAN'S FUTURE UNCERTAIN It was stated that Viktor Orban, who has announced he will not enter parliament after the elections, plans to remain as the leader of the Fidesz Party. While it is expected that Orban will travel to the US in the coming period, the political and economic processes in the country are being closely monitored.
