ORBÁN and his APHRODITES: THIS IS HOW HUNGARY REMAINS WHITE
Budapest has launched a novel programme to "keep Hungary Hungarian" and encourage births. Parents, who must be married, can borrow 10 million forints (about €25,000) from the state, and do not have to repay it if they manage to have three children. They also do not have to justify how they spend the money or pay interest.
Like many other EU member states, the country is ageing, suffering from labour shortages, and workers are leaving the country in search of higher wages.
Prime Minister Viktor Orban and his right-wing Fidesz party want to encourage the growth of the native population through families rather than helping mass immigration. "We do not need numbers, but Hungarian children," the president said in his State of the Nation address in February.
The European peoples have reached a historic crossroads. Those who decide in favour of immigration and migrants, for whatever reason, are in fact creating countries with mixed populations. The historical traditions of these countries are coming to an end, and a new world is developing.
The Hungarian government claims that the decision for this loan is due to the "strong mandate" they have received from the people: 1,382,000 people filled out the questionnaire, according to the Communication Office. "People would like Hungary to be a Hungarian and family-friendly country."
The Hungarians have called for a future in which Hungarian families and the birth of Hungarian children are supported, and not immigration schemes and support for emigration. This openly clashes with the postulates of Brussels.
Thousands of families have already received some of the incentives of the Action Plan for the Protection of Children. Family Protection. Most are asking for the maximum sum of 25,000 euros, but some are asking for less, in order to have fewer children.
There is also a plan to help with mortgages and car purchases. The plan also provides for universal childcare, with the construction of 20,000 new places. Currently, while the average EU fertility rate is 1.59, Hungary's is 1.49 children per woman, according to Eurostat.
The loan is part of Orban's Action Plan for Family Protection, a seven-point policy that devotes 4.8% of GDP to programmes to support families and encourage births. Couples must meet specific criteria to get the loan repayment: first they must be married, for at least one of them it must be their first marriage, the wife must be between 18 and 40 years old, at least one of them must have paid into social security for 180 days in Hungary and they have a period of five years to pay it off and have a child.
For couples who have a child within a five-year period, the interest on the loan is suspended forever and monthly payments are stopped for three years. The birth of a second child allows them a further three-year pause in repayments, and upon the birth of the third child, all the money they have contributed is returned and the loan is settled, allowing families to enjoy the 25,000 euros.
If the couple does not conceive a child within five years or gets divorced, they must pay back everything they have borrowed within four months. Critics of the program say it is designed to benefit middle-class Hungarians and will not reach the poor.
Budapest occupies a worthy place among the most beautiful cities in the world, its architectural constructions are highly interesting for all lovers of art, history and tourism, for its part the Danube River is one of the most important and emblematic in Europe, whether this society can enjoy it as it is in the future depends largely on whether it can maintain its own culture.
