German magazine denies censorship claims by Hungarian politician Magyar Péter

Hungarian politician Péter Magyar has accused the German magazine Cicero of censorship, alleging that they selectively edited an interview. Magyar claimed that the magazine removed content it disliked, mirroring what he described as "Orbán's censorship" previously employed by the Hungarian Presidential Office.

Magyar specifically stated that "things they don't like, they cut out of an interview, and quote it that way." He drew a parallel between the magazine's alleged actions and the practices of the Hungarian Presidential Office, which he also accused of censorship.

In response, Index reported that Cicero updated its interview with an editorial statement. The magazine acknowledged minor discrepancies between the original interview published by the Sándor Palace (the Presidential Office) and the German version they released. However, Cicero asserted that these differences were not substantive and did not alter the core content of the interview.
