Ministry of Finance: Unworthy attack that Hadházy claims the key figure of the Microsoft case has been appointed to lead the KEF

The Hungarian Ministry of Finance criticized former MP Ákos Hadházy's remarks regarding the appointment of Zsuzsanna Novák-Soós to the Procurement and Supply Directorate. The ministry is considering legal action for defamation. Hadházy alleged that Novák-Soós was involved in the controversial Microsoft procurement while leading the National Tax and Customs Administration's Procurement Department. The ministry defended Novák-Soós, stating she was only a technical facilitator and not involved in decision-making. They emphasized that no complaints regarding procurement legality were raised against her. The controversy also involves Tiborcz Péter, brother of Viktor Orbán's son-in-law, who chaired the procurement committee linked to the Microsoft deal, which has faced scrutiny for potential corruption.
