György Matolcsy, the former governor of the Hungarian National Bank, has been placed in pre-trial detention for thirty days – according to Daily News Hungary. The portal reported that the case has taken on a new dimension: an international arrest warrant has been issued for Ádám Matolcsy, the son of the former central bank governor.

The week's most significant development occurred in the case of the former central banker. The source did not provide further details on the investigation, but stressed that both the court decision and the warrant issued against the son represent serious turns of events.

A summary of government activities also covered state commemorations of the 70th anniversary of the 1956 Revolution, as well as 2027 budget priorities, but these do not fall within the criminal investigation topic.
