BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto rejected allegations of corruption and calls for his resignation on Tuesday, speaking to the media for the first time after he was photographed aboard the yacht of a government-friendly tycoon more than a week ago.
The 41-year-old, Prime Minister Viktor Orban's top diplomat for six years, vacationed in the Adriatic off the Croatian coast aboard the 21 million euro ($25 million) yacht, the Lady MRD, according to an investigation by website Atlatszo.hu.
