TL;DR Summary

Protests erupt in Hungary over leaked recording by former government insider alleging corruption by top officials, leading to demands for Prime Minister Viktor Orban's resignation. The recording, released by whistleblower Peter Magyar, implicates Orban's aides in attempting to interfere in a corruption case. The scandal adds to mounting pressure on Orban's government, which has faced public outrage over a pardon issued to a man involved in covering up child sexual abuses. Magyar, Varga's ex-husband, has turned whistleblower and plans to establish a new pro-EU political party, while Orban's nationalist leadership faces one of its strongest public challenges.
