Description | BUDAPEST (Reuters) - Prominent U.S. Holocaust claims lawyer Ed Fagan is to file a "multi-billion" dollar lawsuit against Hungary, alleging it wrongly kept artworks stolen by the Nazis and conspired to prevent them being returned.
Fagan told Reuters he would file suit in a New York district court on Thursday which would also seek to force the Hungarian government to disclose a memo of a meeting between German and Hungarian officials in the 1960s, in which he alleges the two countries conspired to prevent art being returned.
"We are going to court. The history of the Hungarians in relation to these things is not so good," Fagan told Reuters by telephone from Vienna.
