The Deputy Minister of State explained that according to the convergence program submitted to Brussels in April, the government expects zero inflation from January to December. So the minus 0.6 percent of the first five months can be followed by a 0.6 percent increase in the coming months. He emphasized that it will be an incredibly slow, moderate increase in accordance with the trends. Balogh László added that a 2-3 percent inflation is usually normal in a healthy, stable economy.
