Finance Minister and Eurogroup President Kyriakos Pierrakakis traveled to Hungary on Thursday to hold bilateral meetings with the country’s political leadership.

Pierrakakis will meet Prime Minister Peter Magyar and Hungarian Finance Minister Andras Karman to discuss macroeconomic developments in Europe, the Eurogroup’s priorities, and issues of common economic and European interest.

“I am looking forward to my visit to Hungary and to exchanging views on the economic future of Europe. In times of change, Europe has always moved forward through dialogue, mutual understanding, and a willingness to seek common solutions. This is particularly important today, as our economies face common challenges that no country can tackle alone. In a world marked by economic and geopolitical uncertainty, it is crucial that we continue to prioritize sound economic policies and the further deepening of European economic integration,” Pierrakakis said before leaving Athens.
