Boosting vocational education and training in times of labour market transitions (debate)

Let's love to learn! This is the attitude that can make our children successful in the future. Teaching this lesson is our job both as parents and as decision-makers in Europe! 3 reasons why this is a key issue: The World Economic Forum predicts that two-thirds of children starting school will work in jobs that do not exist today. Currently, 80% of SMEs struggle to find a skilled workforce. Finall…

Increasing the efficiency of the EU guarantee under the InvestEU Regulation and simplifying reporting requirements (debate)

Dear Madam President, Europe needs more investment to regain and strengthen its economic strength. Today, Hungary is a testament to the consequences of halting investment. Due to the misguided economic policy of the outgoing government, the Hungarian people are living worse and worse, prices are rising, salaries are being devalued, and the future is becoming more uncertain. This is what happens wh…

Presentation of the Court of Auditors' annual report 2024 (debate)

Mr. President, please. It is with a heavy heart that I read the report of the European Court of Auditors. This report is about how to spend EU funds even better. For us Hungarians, however, this shows the loss. The loss that Hungarians have suffered for years because of the Orbán government. Orban's job is not to govern well, but to make their friends richer and fill their own pockets as much as p…

Mr. President, please. The draft budget before us does not only contain figures. It's about being able to protect what's important to all Europeans: our values, our security, our future. Safety is the most important of these, which, unfortunately, can no longer be taken for granted. The world around us has changed. We live in the midst of military conflicts, migratory pressure and new types of sec…

The role of simple tax rules and tax fragmentation in European competitiveness (debate)

I think it's unreliable that the Congresswoman is saying propaganda texts here. He makes claims that are not true, as the propaganda put it. I was never, ever happy that it was bad for the Hungarians. On the one hand, and on the other hand, I would like to say that KATA was a very important and simple form of taxation for 450,000 people. They pulled the ground from under 450,000 people overnight. …

The role of simple tax rules and tax fragmentation in European competitiveness (debate)

Dear Mr President, There are some that Hungary has been at the forefront of in Europe. A very simple and favourable form of taxation has been available to small businesses for many years. Unfortunately, however, the Orbán government has almost completely abolished KATA taxation, so the tax administration again entails serious costs for businesses. Today, a Hungarian company spends five times more …

Financial activities of the European Investment Bank – annual report 2024 (debate)

Dear Mr President, It may seem trite to say that Europe is facing historic challenges, but this is indeed the case. Russia's aggression has shown that we must have deterrent defence capabilities. The customs war pointed to our economic dependencies and weaknesses. The answer to both threats can be partly provided through increased investment. The European Investment Bank, as the bank of the Union,…

Implementation report on the Recovery and Resilience Facility (debate)

Thank you for the question. First of all: I wasn't happy, I was just talking in my indignation. Because that is your responsibility. It is not Tisza's fault that we do not receive the funds, Hungary does not receive them, but you do. Even if they tell a lie a hundred thousand times, or spend a hundred million forints to spread a lie, it remains a lie.…

Implementation report on the Recovery and Resilience Facility (debate)

Dear Madam President, It is a historic achievement for the EU, and another wasted opportunity for Hungary. One third of the EU funds available to Hungary are huge, with nearly half a million forints for every Hungarian citizen. However, the Orbán government renounces this. After years of persuasion, we recently learned the truth by hiding in the lines of a government decree: The government will st…

Mr. President, please. Economic coordination at EU level is in vain if some countries' leaders jerk the helms or keep the map upside down. Thanks to misguided economic measures, Hungary pays an exceptionally high interest rate on its debt, amounting to nearly HUF 900,000 per household. Viktor Orbán also announced a flight start. Inflation, which is a tax on the poor, has really taken off again. Fo…

Dear Madam President, Investments in crypto-assets are increasing globally. However, there is no question that this form of investment is particularly risky.
