Hungary In Demographic Crisis, Says Kövér
Strengthening families should be the focal point of policies over the next four years, László Kövér, parliamentary speaker, said, adding that Hungary is in a deep demographic crisis. Kövér told a public forum in Kalocsa, in south Hungary, that help must be offered to enable families to raise three or four children.

He cited figures showing that since 1980 the number of Hungarians had been falling each year by a number equivalent to the resident count of a town bigger than Kalocsa.
