Zbigniew Ziobro, former Polish Minister of Justice, left Hungary and flew to the United States on the day the newly elected Hungarian prime minister Péter Magyar took office. Ziobro was photographed at an airport in New Jersey after arriving from Warsaw. According to available information, Polish authorities were seeking Ziobro on suspicion of unauthorized use of public funds and deployment of the Pegasus spyware against political opponents.

The former Polish minister received asylum in Hungary under the previous Orbán government. According to reports, he was to receive a so-called Geneva passport, a special document issued by Hungary. Poland has already issued a European arrest warrant for Ziobro and his deputy. However, Polish authorities point out that if the United States does not respect the international warrant, their options are limited. Onet Wiadomosci ↗
Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar described Ziobro's presence in Hungary as problematic and declared that his new government would not tolerate similar cases. The Polish public and officials described Ziobro's departure as a compromising matter for relations between Warsaw and Budapest. HVG ↗
