PM Orban Discloses Details of his Speech Delivered in Kotcse

There are signs suggesting that Hungary's prime minister is preparing for a government reshuffle. He has revealed that a peace budget has been drafted, with a focus on increasing wages and family benefits.

Drawing a comparison to German post-war economic architect Ludwig Erhard, PM Orban underlined that "we need an Erhard – who was once Gyorgy Matolcsy until he became central bank governor – who is a top minister managing both economic and budgetary tools all at once and is able to oversee the implementation of this plan of action. The person of this minister depends on the decision the government will be compelled to make in consequence of the fact that – regrettably – on March 1 the central bank governor's seat will fall vacant. It is evident that the person who will take this seat cannot be that top minister – to put it bluntly. One will be an economic top minister, while the other one will be the governor of the central bank," Prime Minister Viktor Orban's post read.
