The allegation comes after Hungary impounded two Ukrainian cash trucks as part of a money laundering investigation

The Hungarian authorities have proof that Ukraine is covertly channeling funds to the opposition Tisza Party ahead of the country’s parliamentary elections next month, government spokesman Zoltan Kovacs has said.

Speaking at the Hour of Truth broadcast on Wednesday, Kovacs recalled that pro-EU Tisza Party leaders had publicly spoken of needing between $30 and 60 million for an electoral campaign – a figure they argued would counterbalance the overwhelming power of the ruling Fidesz party.

With the elections approaching, Kovacs claimed that “the national security services presented the evidence to the parliament’s national security committee that proves how the Ukrainians finance the party through various means.”
