Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban ordered a probe on Monday into what he called a wiretapping of his foreign minister as his government sought to deal with the fallout from a media report about its links to Russia before an April election.
Nationalist Orban, in power since 2010, faces his toughest reelection bid of the past 16 years on April 12 as the centre-right opposition Tisza party leads most polls with a wide margin.
