US EditionBREAKING! Brutal Attack on Former Hungarian Foreign Minister and His Wife
- Former Hungarian foreign minister Gza Jeszenszky and his wife were violently assaulted outside their Budapest home on a Sunday afternoon in 2025.
- The attack stemmed from a prior assault by the same attacker two years earlier, who Jeszenszky recognized and who apparently had a personal grievance.

- Jeszenszky filed an official complaint and hopes justice will be served as the attack highlights ongoing threats linked to his political past and the sensitive 1993 Hungarian-Ukrainian treaty.
