MTI report:

Péter Szijjártó, the foreign minister, told MTI on the first day of his visit to the Arab Gulf, when he met Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, that not only does central part of Europe see the migrant issue this way but the standpoint in the Gulf states is the same.

He said the handling of the root of the crisis was not progressing. “Conflicts in the Middle East are constantly deepening while the fight against the Islamic State terrorist organisation is missing a breakthrough, and European leaders are only talking about the importance of protecting the external borders while nothing of any note is happening on this score,” he said.
