Ligi said that while the Estonian government suspended payments to the 2nd pillar pension funds temporarily but kept the long-term system running, Hungary is stopping payments and ending the whole system.

 

“I confirm that we will not revise the pension reform and temporary inevitability will not be extended,” said Ligi.
