Hungary’s Prosecutor General Gábor Bálint Nagy has resigned under pressure from Prime Minister Péter Magyar, saying the office must remain independent and not become a tool in political struggles. The move is pitched as part of broader reforms to dismantle Orbán-era appointments and signals a shift in judicial oversight that EU watchdogs will scrutinize as the new government establishes its authority.

Prosecutors raid Fidesz servers, opposition says
