Orbán’s Hungary robbed Ukraine’s state bank of $82 million — Oschadbank launches international legal fight to recover it

Ukraine's state-owned Oschadbank has launched a two-track international legal campaign to recover assets still held in Hungary after the 5 March convoy seizure, the bank stated. (...)

The incident occurred on 5 March, when Hungary's Counter-Terrorism Centre (TEK) — a force under the Interior Ministry regularly deployed for government political operations — intercepted the convoy [which was transporting money and gold from Ukraine to Austria] and hid the vehicles on TEK's closed compound. Budapest then released the seven employees on the evening of 6 March, but the vehicles and valuables remain in Hungary.
