The government's position is that "every child is a safe haven", and the family support system will be maintained and expanded.

Judit Varga recorded: "In 2010, the government put the support of families at the center of its policy, it became a strategic goal." "This not only means that the support system is constantly expanding, but that right-wing thinking puts children and families at the center," added the minister.

In addition to this, the meadows and meadows were created, and then, in connection with the measures of the Bokros package, these were cut and deleted. Judit Varga reminded: the first Orbán government restored the possibilities, maximized the amounts, restored the gyest for three years.

According to the Minister of Justice, the family provides emotional security and also stimulates work.

"We know who we work for: our family, our children," he declared. He added:

In 2010, the right-wing government promised to create one million new jobs, which it did. The goal was that every Hungarian who wanted to work would get a job.

In order to achieve this, taxes on work had to be reduced, and the winners of the economic policy should be those who have children, he noted.

Judit Varga also considered it important to emphasize that family policy can only be done in alliance with women, they are at the center, it depends on them how many children are born.

The minister said that the amount spent on supporting families currently amounts to five percent of GDP. "Facilitating home creation, free school textbooks, home renovation, car purchase discounts for large families, tax measures," the politician listed the elements of the support system.

As a result of the Hungarian family policy, he indicated that the fertility rate changed from 1.2 to 1.6 in the last twelve years, the number of marriages increased, the number of divorces decreased, and the number of abortions decreased. Judit Varga added: Every nation in Europe faces a demographic challenge, everyone has an idea of ​​how to deal with this problem.

- The right wing is thinking about family policy, we don't want to remedy the labor shortage by introducing foreign cultures. the leftists, on the other hand, do not see the solution to the problems in family support, said the minister. According to him, the formula is simple: God is a family: Hungarians respect God, love their country, and want to protect their family.

The minister said that a Hungarian proposal has already been formulated in European decision-making forums, according to which the EU budget should be spent on family policy. - There are EU resources dedicated to helping immigrants - indicated the politician, who believes that the Hungarian one is a unique proposal, which could be accepted to keep Europe as the best place in the world.

At the end of his greeting, the Minister of Justice quoted Kuno Klebelsberg, who died 90 years ago this year, who wrote in 1932:

"Never have we needed Hungarian traditional sobriety as much as now, which was most perfectly embodied in the calm wisdom of Ferenc Deák.

We can also come out of the world crisis with comparatively the least internal damage if the Hungarian nation preserves its amazing calm throughout

and whatever happens around us, we remain thoughtful."
