Hungary is preparing to release Communist-era state security records that would reveal the identities of agents and informants who worked for the regime's secret services. The move could expose how deeply surveillance networks penetrated Hungarian society before 1989, touching families, public figures and institutions. It is expected to reignite debate in Hungary over reckoning with the communist past and the handling of its archival legacy.
