The Hungarian Ambassador in Paris was requested for a visit in the case of meal vouchers

Trócsányi László Hungarian Ambassador in Paris was called in to the French Foreign Ministry on Friday in connection with the meal vouchers. Paris considers that Hungary does not comply applicable with the European Union free trade rules and punishes the French companies.

The Hungarian government considers the Erzsébet-voucher primarily as a social tool. The profit, that comes from the distribution of the vouchers is spent on social benefits. The operation of the Erzsébet-voucher is similar to the operation of the Holiday vouchers, which was never objected by the EU Commission. (MTI)
