Péter Magyar wished a long continuation to Szilveszter Ókovács four years ago

Péter Magyar previously praised Szilveszter Ókovács on Facebook, but now criticizes his leadership after his dismissal as director of the Hungarian State Opera. The Prime Minister stated that Ókovács's tenure was marked by mismanagement and waste. Ókovács's employment was terminated based on findings from an institutional audit, revealing numerous irregularities, including unauthorized bonuses. Balázs Ivacs will temporarily take over until a new director is appointed.
