Galaktika Magazine: Statement from Istvan Burger

Istvan Burger, publisher of Metropolis Media and Galaktika Magazine, has issued a statement regarding the reports of massive theft of translated work over the past decade.


Mandiner Magazine has a brief summary and the full statement in Hungarian here: http://sci-fi.mandiner.hu/cikk/20160408_kozlemenyben_ismerte_el_a_galaktika_a_jogsertest_karpotlast_igernek

It seems that Burger is offering to compensate authors effected by the theft and admits that the foreign acquisitions have been mishandled and they "did not act with due diligence, caution, or even speed." 

It is unclear whether they are intending to compensate ALL authors effected or only those who appeared in the 2015 issues.
