A political controversy has emerged following claims that László Kövér refused to shake hands with a representative from the Tisza Party. The incident involves Krisztián Kőszegi, a member of parliament associated with the Tisza movement. Bertalan Havasi responded to the situation, noting that he was not personally present when the alleged event occurred. Despite his absence, Havasi dismissed the significance of the snub. He asserted that if the refusal happened, it was acceptable given Kőszegi's political stance. Havasi described Kőszegi as a representative of a party that seeks to dismantle the democratic state of law. This exchange highlights the deep ideological divide currently existing within the Hungarian parliament.
