On Saturday, the Minister of State for International Communication and Relations suggested to the editorial board of the German ZDF that “next time they want to introduce monsters they should look around their own country; there are (were) quite a few…”

In his remark posted on Facebook, Zoltán Kovács wrote on Friday evening “on the programme ‘Heute Show’ of the German left-liberal television broadcaster ZDF that claims to be public-service, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán was depicted as Hannibal Lecter”.

He stressed that “these displays are extremely pathetic, and reveal the true nature of the progressive-independent-objective-quality press in some Western countries”.
