Hungary economy back at pre-pandemic levels says government
Change language:
A year and a half after the first outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, Hungary’s economic output has returned to pre-pandemic levels, Péter Szijjártó, the minister of foreign affairs and trade, said on Thursday.
Getting the economy back to normal by the summer required Hungary’s government to find allies that were prepared to expand their capacities even in such a difficult period, the foreign ministry cited Szijjártó as saying at the Business Services Hungary 2021 conference.
Whereas during the global economic crisis of 2008-09 the Socialist government relied on providing welfare and taking out loans, the current government decided to tackle the crisis caused by the pandemic by concentrating on job protection and protecting people’s health, the minister said. While the Hungarian economy needed five years to recover from the global financial crisis,
this time it only needed a year and a half,
he added.
Szijjártó said the emerging new era of the global economy was characterised by a redistribution of production capacities, adding that countries that have been successful in developing their economies would be the winners of the new era.

The record employment, investment and quarterly growth rates
seen in Hungary over the past two years are a reflection of the strength of the economy, Szijjártó said. Hungary’s GDP grew by a record 18 percent in the second and by 6 percent in the third quarter of this year, he noted.
And so the election rhetoric just keeps on coming. They should cut the price of VAT as we pay the highest in Europe. But of course the government is corrupt and have their own agenda
Wow – this will bring about a ROBUST discussion.
Massive & Broad scope for it to be VIBRANTLY discussed and opinions expressed.
Minister for Foreign Affairs & Trade – Peter Szijjarto continues to “toe” the Party Line, with statement(s) that are evidenced in this article.
Joseph Goebbels – the “infamous”- Reich Minister of Propaganda – was a reader and practiced ideas and theories of Edward Bernays – 1891-1995 – Austrian born – who was the pioneer in the Field of Public Relations & Propaganda.
Peter Szijjarto – are you an admirer / follower and “proned” to practice – the theories of Bernays ?
Your statements are they – Propaganda, Political Spin – removed of Fact and Substance – that Fail to substantiate Comments or Statements – that read – Devorced of Candour ?
This article should be ROBUST – in comments – HOPEFULLY.
