E-PM Accuses Orbán Of Repeating A Preference For An Illiberal State Model
- 18 Aug 2014 9:00 AM
Reacting to a radio interview given on Friday by the prime minister, the opposition leftist E-PM alliance accused Viktor Orbán of repeating a preference for an illiberal state model that looks eastwards. Orbán told public Kossuth Radio that the state should create opportunities for work alongside private-sector job-creation.
Policymaking based on the community and public good are more suited to this goal than the liberal western model, he said. E-PM said Orbán insisted on pursuing the fostered jobs scheme, but policies should be geared towards promoting entry to the real labour market.
The leftist party said Hungary’s economic growth was unsustainable since one-off “prestige investments” were driving growth.
