The documents, first reported by Hungarian news outlet 444, show that the Orbán government’s funding reached organisations in the United States, Canada, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile and Japan, supporting both cultural programmes and day-to-day operating costs. Unlike standard grant schemes, the funding was awarded through individual applications rather than open public calls. The Hungarian Scout Association in Exteris, based in Morris Plains, New Jersey, received HUF 119 million (EUR 328,000) to operate the Hungarian House and support its Diaspora School Camp programme. The Orbán government’s funding covered a wide range of expenses, including staff salaries, project management, flights to Hungary, accommodation, meals, admission fees and the operating costs of the organisation’s New York office. According to the report, HUF 35 million (EUR 96,500) of this funding was approved on 9 and 10 April, just days before Hungary’s parliamentary election.
