Gergely Gulyás said the number of MEPs connected to Soros or organisations funded by him was “astonishing”.

Soros’ real goal is to find allies in Brussels to obstruct Hungarian migration policy and open the borders to migrants, he said.

“George Soros is as strong as the freely elected Hungarian opposition is weak”, especially internationally, he said.

Gulyás further accused the financier of launching an “attack” in 2008 against the largest Hungarian bank, causing severe damages to Hungarians with loans in foreign denominations, for which the Hungarian financial watchdog levied a 500 million forint (EUR 1.6m) fine.
