Hungary is perceived as having the worst public sector corruption record in the EU, according to Transparency International’s latest report.

With scores ranging from 42 to 46 out of 100, Hungary, Bulgaria and Romania are far behind the EU’s Scandinavian top three, with Denmark crowned as best in class (90), followed by Finland (87) and Sweden (83), in the anti-corruption NGO’s 2022 Corruption Perceptions index.

The lowest scores were outside the EU

With a score of 28, Russia has one of the lowest results in Eastern Europe, and its full-scale invasion of Ukraine last February is a “stark reminder of the threat that corruption and the absence of government accountability pose for global peace and security,” according to a press release published with the report.

Ukraine’s score is only slightly higher (33), but the country has been “undertaking important reforms and steadily improving” since the start of the war.

I wouldn't say that Russia has high corruption, because it is different in a principled way. Russia has a democratic look, but is contructed differently.

Perception of corruption (the type of data that Transparency International collects) is not a measure of corruption - it is just a cultural marker, useless for comparisons between countries.

Tax evasion is the best proxy for corruption. Here are some figures of the tax evasion done through Swiss banks (though obviously only a fraction of the tax evasion goes through Swiss banks):

Good news, it seems this globalist political organization hates Hungary the most

I dont deny that Hungary is corrupt as well, but i do care about more serious problems.

What a load of propaganda bullshit. If you take this obvious hit piece ordered by the Western intelligence services to smear certain countries they don't like seriously, you have a thing or two to learn.

The Hungarian government and FIDESZ is basically built on corruption. Brainwashing the elderly and simple people in their own country, posing as some alt-right savior abroad while they take the whole country country to themselves step by step behind the scenes. It has reached a point where I dont even give a fuck about political orientation in Hungarian politics because these guys basically steal your kids future and give it to theirs.

Well, there's a globo alternative in being "corrupt free" state invaded by hordes of aliens, indoctrinated with LGBT-agenda bullshit and all kinds of degeneracy. I'd prefer corruption. Orban is not the saviour but he does ok things, let them steal in exchange for not listening the mullah every morning. Every person builds his future himself anyway, not a mommy state for him. People and nations steal their future themselves by not reproducing and sinking in hedonism, that's a common problem from Lisbon to Vladivostok, we're all part of problem, inculding me, you and others, there's no one else to blame.
