Péter Magyar: A few years ago, András Schiffer would have taken György Matolcsy away on a leash, today he is worried about the rights of Fidesz's public money thieves and his hairdresser.

András Schiffer, once critical of György Matolcsy, now defends the rights of Fidesz officials amid concerns over recent legal practices. A joint statement by over thirty legal experts, including former judges and ministers, criticizes recent arrests and claims they threaten the rule of law. Justice Minister Márta Görög responded, asserting that legal guarantees are already in place and emphasizing the independence of judicial bodies. She noted that the evaluation of legal proceedings is open to public discourse, but the ministry's role is limited in shaping public opinion on these matters. Schiffer's past remarks about Matolcsy's accountability were recalled, highlighting a shift in his stance.
