The Secretary of State of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs replied after the actor said in a statement: Orbán’s propaganda machine lies about him.

For the second time, George Clooney became a close-to-government press topic, after the actor wrote about a lying propaganda machine in Orban and said he is waiting for the day when Hungary will find what it was again.

Clooney’s words were now commented on by Tamás Menczer, Secretary of State for Information and International Presentation of Hungary. Menczer spoke on HírTV about generally respecting the good guys in his profession, and George Clooney deserves respect because he’s a good actor.

However, this does not mean that Clooney has approached world politics.

Tamás Menczer added, then said: he cautions against seeing the actor as an oracle in world politics.

“Obviously he has assistants. What kind of help do you have? Those helpers, we can see that, “said the politician on the program.

The Secretary of State went on to say that Clooney did not know where Hungary and Budapest were, and finally recommended that the actor and his wife come to us, have a good coffee and see what a good place Hungary was.

The case of the Hungarian government and George Clooney began when the actor began to speak about hatred in the world in an interview, citing Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán as an example. The government responded to this in the usual way: Soros.
