Mr. Szijjarto said, “The whole structure of the world economy is being transformed, and this great transformation also means that the automatic competitive advantage of the West has disappeared. The Eastern world has significantly strengthened.”

According to him, in terms of finance and technology, the East has overtaken the West. However, in terms of human resources, the countries have always been ahead of the West.

Mr. Szijjarto recalled that the mutual dependence of the West and the East in economic terms has now become much stronger. He warned that anyone who denies this could cause very serious damage to the European economy.
