This is Fake News. Orban didn't say that.

Hungary now ranks last among European Union member states in a vital measure of household welfare—Actual Individual Consumption (AIC) per capita—according to June 18, 2025 data from Eurostat. At just 72% of the EU average, Hungary trails all 26 other countries in terms of what families actually consume, including public services like healthcare and education.
In stark contrast, Luxembourg leads the bloc with 141%, while the Netherlands and Germany stand at 120% and 118%, respectively. Even Poland, a Central European peer, comes in at a much healthier 85% of the EU average, dramatically outpacing Hungary in real living standards by about 13 percentage points.
This glaring gap grows more compelling when set against GDP per capita. Although Hungary’s GDP reaches roughly 77% of the EU average, lifting it above several low-income EU nations, its households nonetheless remain poorer in consumption terms. This discrepancy highlights the fact that economic output isn’t translating into real benefits for Hungarian families.
