WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An official appointed by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban to investigate foreign political interference met with Trump administration officials this week in what U.S. officials saw as a bid to enlist their help against Orban's perceived enemies in advance of elections expected next year.
A Hungarian delegation met at the headquarters of the U.S. Agency for International Development in Washington with Trump appointees on Thursday and requested information on the agency's partners and employees in Hungary, said a source familiar with the matter.
