Orbán: They tried to recruit me during the early period of my military service, but I refused

Viktor Orbán shared documents to refute claims of being a communist informant, asserting he was under surveillance instead. This follows allegations from former Prime Minister Miklós Németh about Orbán's military service. The discussion is reignited by the upcoming release of state informant names from the communist era. Orbán stated he was approached to be recruited but declined. Historian Krisztián Ungváry emphasized the need for evidence regarding Orbán's alleged past as an agent. The state security files will soon be accessible, revealing thousands of informants' names, affecting many families in Hungary.
