Péter Szijjártó drops lawsuit he filed against Telex over our article on Samsung case

In February, then MFA Péter Szijjártó announced that he would file a complaint against Telex over our article that broke the Samsung story. He never ended up filing a libel suit. We requested that he appear for a court hearing in his privacy rights lawsuit, but he withdrew from that even before the first hearing could be held. Now he has to pay Telex 825,000 forints in legal costs.
