Zbigniew Ziobro, the former Polish justice minister granted asylum in Hungary during Viktor Orban’s time as prime minister, fled to the US following Orban’s defeat in last month’s election, Gazeta Wyborcza reported on Sunday.

“I’m in the United States, I arrived yesterday,” Ziobro confirmed in an interview for TV Republika late Sunday.
