Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has dismissed U.S. sanctions on his cabinet chief, Antal Rogan, as an attack on national sovereignty, calling them the "last, petty revenge" of the outgoing U.S. administration.
Rogan, who oversees Hungary’s intelligence services, was sanctioned for alleged corruption. Orban defended him, arguing that being targeted by a foreign power proved he was fulfilling his role in protecting Hungary’s sovereignty.
A close ally of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, Orban expects a "golden era" in bilateral relations. Facing domestic challenges ahead of the 2026 elections, he vowed to push back against "foreign networks," particularly those linked to Hungarian-born U.S. financier George Soros.
Orban’s government has long opposed Soros’s influence, tightening NGO regulations and prompting the relocation of Central European University from Budapest to Vienna. His remarks reaffirm his nationalist agenda as he prepares for the next electoral cycle.
