Soros Foundation Accuses Hungarian Government Campaign Of Anti-Semitism

Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban

A political campaign by Hungary's government vilifying the head of the European Commission and financier George Soros's son is "propaganda deeply tainted by anti-Semitism," a Soros spokesperson said on November 22. A Hungarian government spokesman said the accusations were "groundless." Prime Minister Viktor Orban's government unveiled billboards on November 20 vilifying European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen, the first time it has made her a personal target in a political campaign. The billboards, part of Orban's campaign for 2024 European parliamentary elections, depict
Von der Leyen alongside Soros's son Alexander, who chairs his Open Society Foundations, reading, "Let's not dance to their tunes."
