(MIS)UNDERSTANDING CENTRAL EUROPE - Hungary and the Western Media

Summary/Abstract: Occasionally small states can play a role out of all proportion to their size. If you want a non-Hungarian illustration, look at what Latvia has been doing. They’ve pulled themselves out of a far worse economic mess than what we have had in Hungary – a 17% deficit – a classic Münchhausen act! It’s been spectacular, and an example for all of Europe. And my sense of it is that we in Hungary are doing something similar, something along these lines, under the present government. A far reaching reform programme, which may very well go down in history – it depends on the historians – as an all-European model of transformation.
