Hungary’s government spokesman voiced concerns over Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros’ plan to invest $1 billion to build his Open Society University Network, calling it an “ideologically-driven political agenda.”
The Budapest-born investor said Thursday during the World Economic Forum summit held in Davos, Switzerland, that he would contribute $1 billion to establish a global network of universities to promote the values of “free expression and diversity of beliefs” according to the Open Society Foundations’ press release.
