Allegations against Hungarian spokesperson Anita Köböl

Overview

Anita Köböl, a spokesperson for the Tisza administration, attended the October 23 state celebrations at the Hungarian State Opera House, marking the 70th anniversary of the 1956 Revolution.

Following these events, Köböl faced allegations regarding her professional activities for companies owned by Lőrinc Mészáros. Influencer Dániel Deák claimed that Köböl worked as a presenter for Mészáros's businesses, reportedly receiving millions of forints in return. Deák alleged that Köböl invoiced nearly 1.5 million HUF for a single long weekend event, and financial reports for Köböl's company indicated earnings of approximately 40 million HUF from similar assignments last year.

When contacted, Köböl did not explicitly deny the information, stating she would consult with her leadership regarding guidelines before providing an official response.
