Fazekas Sándor: the EU must urgently help the pig and dairy sector
An extremely serious situation has developed in the European milk and pork market. The EU must act urgently, due to the low purchase prices and due to the Ukrainian and Russian embargo – the Minister of Agriculture told MTI on Friday.
Fazekas Sándor attended a two-day meeting in Prague, where the ministers of agriculture of the Visegrád countries (V4), and the where the ministers of agriculture of Bulgaria, Romania, Slovenia and Austria were present.
The minister said that according to the Hungarian position, the farmers are not responsible for the current critical situation, but they pay the price of the Ukrainian and Russian crises. The farmers' losses are recognized as earnings by the multinationals, so the EU must act urgently – he said. (MTI)
