Appalling? Chinese police officers to soon patrol in Hungary
Hungarian and Chinese police officers will provide joint patrol services, Sándor Pintér, Hungarian Interior Minister, agreed with his Chinese counterpart in mid-February.
Hungarian and Chinese police officers will carry out joint patrols, as agreed by the Hungarian Interior Minister and his Chinese counterpart in February. The German newspaper Welt reported that after the agreement, Chinese police officers could also appear in Hungarian cities, just like in Serbia.
“Joint petrol” by Chinese and Hungarian police
The Ministry of Interior (MI) confirmed to Telex that “police officers from the two countries will be able to jointly carry out patrols in the future, thus helping to improve communication between citizens and authorities of the two countries, improving internal security and public order.”
According to the MI, the cooperation agreement aims to improve security in the tourist areas of the two countries during peak tourist periods and, in general, during events that attract large crowds.
“The conclusion of similar agreements is not unprecedented, Hungarian police officers also assist their Croatian colleagues on the Croatian coast during the peak tourist season, and Austrian police officers have also been on joint duty with their Hungarian colleagues at Lake Balaton,” they wrote in their response to Telex.
Does the CCP plan to spy on its citizens in Hungary?
Critics of the agreement fear, according to Euronews, that China would use the police to control its citizens in Hungary. It is no secret that the Chinese Communist Party spies on its citizens worldwide. The human rights organisation Safeguard Defenders revealed in 2022 that China operates an international network of illegal police stations.
There are two such police service centres in Hungary: in Józsefváros and Kőbánya, both in Budapest. On paper, they deal with administrative matters; however, the Spanish rights organisation says that the Chinese state would rather use them to keep the Chinese diaspora under its ideological control and, if necessary, to force its members back home. The Ministry of Interior claims that there are no Chinese police stations in Hungary.

Hungary has become a very sad joke under Fidesz. Of course Chinese police are going to be spying on and intimidating expatriate Chinese residents. It’s already happening surreptitiously in many countries but in Hungary they will actually appear in uniform. The totalitarian Chinese communist party is now going to teach Hungary security. Of course the Russian FSB is also in Hungary in droves helping Orban with repression of any opposition. Bye bye democracy. You barely knew it Hungarian chumps.
.
In the (3) three plus years I have participated in being a contributing commentator to articles published in DNA, the headlines of this article, especially, even though “questioned marked” – I applaud DNH for there openness exhibiting – raising POINTANT questioning which again HIGHLIGHT the path this Orban led Government have are sending Hungary into a “Viral” black HOLE.
It is APPALLING, what we as Hungarians in our millions continue to ALLOW this Orban Government to introduce incorporate into our lives, that are SHEER practices attuned to Orban, and his Governments, the political party led by the Prime Minister with Russia & China.
1945 to 1989 – remember the joint Policing of our Cities our Country, by those in Russian uniforms, that often where uniforms of military.
The situation of Guest Workers is one of Insult to us that is HUMILIATING us.
WHAT length will Orban take us, his Government his Fidesz Party, that factually see’s the ERADICATION of practices in Hungary that historically have been part of Hungarian life ?
Is there any rotten dictatorship that Orban won’t suck up to?
Again this gang of criminals show their real faces. Chinese communist police patrolling the streets of Hungarian cities. Orbán/Fidesz rule must end asap!!!
It is time for Hungarian young men and women to step up to the plate to protect the country and the citizens. Police officers should be well paid because their lives are in danger each and every day. By-in-large, thank God, most Hungarians are law abiding.
Chinese, Eu or any other foreign nationals should not be participating in protection of the homeland.
This is unnecessary, stupid and out of step with Western values.
Orbánistan, what else? Problem is too many Hungarians either truly believe they are still living in a free country or they simply do not care about living in a de facto dictatorial state. Since young people are few and the few emigrate en masse, I must think it is option two. Seniors care less about freedom, especially if they are fed daily with state propaganda on all media they watch and with cheap alcohol.
mariavontheresa – are you suggesting there is a recruitment number problem of younger Hungarians wanting to Police ?
That is NOT the case.
This is just again, your “Beloved” Hero – Victor Mihaly Orban – playing his role with the China, interfacing on-going deeper into Hungary, the “presence” of the Chinese.
Hmmmmm? Foreign police officers on Hungarian soil? Is this another twisted way to insure the protection of Hungarian National Sovereignty?
Omg, this is sad. How many times have we heard to Mr sijjarto say that Hungary is a sovereign country? When will Hungarians say is enough from fidesz? Hungary is being sold to china and no one is complaining. Unbelievable
If this is a true fact, then the situation is most alarming. Another countries armed security personnel being on Hungarian soil, is a threat to her sovereignty. There can be no excuse, for willingly permitting even the slightest possibility of such a grave act.
I think closer ties with China are a good thing, Hungarians being able to visit China visa free is a positive step from the PRC,
More countries should follow Hungary’s example
Dear Peter Ashford.
While I agree with your comment of closer ties with China(as with most other countries), being a good,and necessary way to a peaceful co-existence,having any other countries armed personnel policing Hungarian citizenry, could open the door to yet unknown problems,even tragic instances.
Are you FN kidding me?
This is a huge infringement on Hungarian sovereignty, the implication being that Hungarians are unable to police their own society without outside help. It’s grossly, acutely embarrassing.
I have noticed that my statements critical of the present Hungarian administration on Daily News Hungary disappear regularly.
Yet, nonsense from pro-Orban trolls are rarely if ever removed. Daily News Hungary is part of Orban’s administration and does not want discourse, only agreement. Anti democratic and shameful example of how far Hungary must go to be called a Democracy.
