Hungarian Speaker: “No issue is more important in Europe today than demography”
No issue is more important in Europe today than demography, Speaker of Parliament László Kövér said in Cluj-Napoca (Kolozsvár), in north-western Romania, on Friday, adding that the key question was whether Hungarians, Romanians and Europeans in general could populate the continent.
Kövér told the opening worship service of the festive synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Romania that while the question of who had arrived first in Transylvania was a “constant debate between Hungarians and Romanians”, the most important question was “who will survive on this land”.
The answer to this question, he said, would be provided by demography. The speaker said ethnic Hungarians in Transylvania were loyal to both the state of Romania and the Hungarian nation, and thereby strengthened ethnic peace in Romania and regional political stability.

Not a fan of the presentation and missing some key matters (talent leaving the country…), however it is logical with lots of facts and data.

Latest TFR for Hungary is 1.41. Interesting that the peak in the number of marriages exactly coincided with the start of the recent massive drop in the number of births. Maybe couples just delaying having a baby, because of the economy/political issues. We shall see.
