Szijjarto: Migration not needed for successful economic policy

The policies pursued by Hungary over the past ten years have demonstrated that migration is not a necessity for a successful economic policy, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said at an OECD ministerial meeting in Paris on Friday. In his address to the session centred on the integration of immigrants, Szijjarto warned against conflating migration and job market challenges, saying that the two had "nothing to do with each other" and a country could also achieve economic growth using its own resources.
