Hungary PM Magyar says tax reform could come later
Hungarian Prime Minister Peter Magyar said on Thursday that his government would create a level playing field for local and foreign investors and reform taxation but first it would pass a new budget for 2026 after runaway spending by its predecessor.
Speaking at a press conference in Vienna after meeting Austrian Chancellor Christian Stocker, Magyar said he asked for "some patience" before his government could look at a special retail tax that former prime minister Viktor Orban levied on retailers, and which was criticised by Austria. Magyar said taxes could be discussed in the medium and long term.
