István Nagy: Brussels cannot risk food safety
Brussels cannot risk food safety, the EU leadership must return to normalcy, because its decisions on agriculture endanger daily bread, said the Minister of Agriculture at a press conference in Budapest on Monday.
According to István Nagy, the reason for the European farmers’ protests is that the EU’s agricultural policy has never been influenced by “extreme green ideologies” to such an extent as it is now. The current direction of the EU cannot be continued because the uncontrolled admission of Ukrainian agricultural products also threatens unpredictable economic and social consequences, he said.
On behalf of the Prime Minister’s Cabinet Office, Zsolt Nyitrai emphasized that the EP elections in June provide an opportunity for change at the European level. The prime minister’s chief adviser announced that the joint publication of the Ministry of Agriculture (AM), the National Chamber of Agrarian Economy (NAK) and the Association of Hungarian Farmers and Farmers’ Associations (Magosz) will be presented to those living in the countryside during the country tour starting this week, which presents the achievements and the latest challenges in agriculture. sum up.
