How a spy scandal exposed EU's failure to protect its officials
Update: 2025-01-22
Description
The EU is facing some serious questions about the lack of robust counter-intelligence measures after an investigation revealed that Hungarian secret forces spied on the European Anti-Fraud Office between 2015 and 2017. During this time, the office investigated corruption linked to Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's son-in-law.
How could the espionage go unnoticed for three years? And what does it say about the EU’s counter-intelligence efforts – or lack thereof?
In this episode, host Giada Santana speaks with Szabolcs Panyi, the lead Hungarian journalist who uncovered the spy scandal, and Greens MEP Daniel Freund about the EU's failure to shield its civil servants from foreign espionage.
