Tamás Suchman, Socialist lawmaker and minister of the Horn government, has died aged 68, the party said on Sunday.
A founding member of the Socialist Party (MSZP) in 1989, Suchman worked as a Socialist MP between 1990-2010. He was appointed minister without portfolio for privatisation in 1995, and minister for industry, trade and tourism in 1996.
He was awarded the For Hungarian Jews Award in 2007, as a recognition of his life’s work, the Socialists official site said.
