Am I the only person who finds it really strange we have thousands upon thousands of Ukrainians “arriving”, every day, and then we only have to issue a few hundred temporary residence permits, and less than half of those actually turn up in Budapest?
Guess most of them also LEAVE again – to … Elsewhere. Not Hungary
