Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar has announced plans for a new governmental body with extensive powers to recover assets he claims were misappropriated. The agency’s mandate would be broad, potentially targeting a wide range of political figures beyond the current ruling elite. Details released by Magyar suggest the institution will have significant authority in investigating and reclaiming funds. The initiative, dubbed “New DNA,” aims to address corruption and illicit wealth accumulation. Critics suggest the agency’s sweeping powers could be used for political retribution. The move signals a potentially significant shift in Hungary’s approach to combating financial crime and accountability within the government. The scope of the agency’s investigations may extend to individuals previously uninvolved in current political affairs.
