Magyar’s 2027 Budget Targets Wealth, Pensions, and EU Budget Deadlock
Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar is pursuing a new economic and diplomatic direction by proposing a 2027 budget that includes a wealth tax and significant pension increases, while simultaneously seeking to resolve EU funding disputes and improve ties with Ukraine. Magyar expects an agreement ending EU fines by year-end and has welcomed recent Ukrainian legislative changes regarding minority education, though he opposes accelerated EU membership for Kyiv.
