Viktor Orbán met with the Speaker of the Chamber at the Carmelite Monastery on Sunday morning.

Coronavirus – the second wave

Half a year after the spring outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, the second wave of the pandemic has arrived. The radical increase in the number of infected is forcing more and more countries to re-impose restrictions, despite the fact that the world economy has not even recovered from the effects of the spring outbreak. According to the signs, the second wave also reached Hungary. Follow our news!

László Parragh, President of the Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Viktor Viktor Orbán, proposed halving corporate income tax by half (5 percent) and suspending corporation tax for a year on Sunday . Parragh reported this to the RTL Club Newsletter.

On Sunday morning, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán met with László Parragh in the company of Minister Antal Rogán. In his video posted on Facebook after the discussion, Orbán said that he is beyond important discussions. Orbán spoke about informing the president of MKIK about the expected sanitary measures (he did not elaborate on the details of this, after his discussion with health professionals on Saturday he said that more decisions are expected at the meeting of operational personnel) and told him that the vaccine is a good solution.

We have good hopes, we can already see the light at the end of the tunnel.

After long weeks before the vaccine, the economics also need to be addressed. “Besides humans, the virus also attacks the fabric of the economy.” Orbán says that the epidemic affects the entire economy, but considers the government’s impact on small and medium-sized businesses to be the most important.

He asked László Parragh to make a proposal to the government and to work more closely in the coming weeks and months to help SMEs. They are especially important because they employ the majority of Hungarians. Orbán concluded his short video by saying that health decisions are coming, then economic measures will follow, so he is waiting for the chamber’s proposal.
