János Bóka says the release of the agent files is a political circus

Bóka János, the Fidesz faction leader, criticized the release of agent files, claiming it distracts from real issues in Hungary. He argued that the incomplete data does not aid in understanding the communist regime's reporting network. The documents, made public after 36 years, could incite discord among Hungarians. Bóka emphasized that the Fidesz party was established to overthrow the communist regime and ensure freedom for the Hungarian people. He noted that many associated with Fidesz were monitored and persecuted by the regime. The released files include names of 53,000 network individuals, but 2,500 agents from before 1990 will remain secret.
