Hungary's PM: End Of Welfare States
- 23 Nov 2012 8:02 AM
The era of welfare states is over, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán told a financial conference hosted by Sberbank in Frankfurt on Thursday. His press chief Bertalan Havasi told reporters that Hungary has a clear answer – the establishment of a labour-based society – as only work, and much work will take society out of the current economic crisis.
“To that end we have not only carried out structural reforms but renewed Hungary,” he declared, adding that the eurozone crisis has shown that Europe cannot live as in the past.
Former German chancellor Gerhard Schröder, Serb Prime Minister Ivica Dacic, Bosnian Serb President Milorad Dodik and Czech President Václav Klaus were among those present.
