Government: migrants gaining citizenship and the right to vote is unacceptable
The government rejects a new addition to the European Commission’s migration strategy — a “sustainable framework” which would mean organised migration to Europe and resettlements — and also objects to an immigration policy that would lead to migrants gaining citizenship and the right to vote, Zoltán Kovács, the state secretary for international communications and relations, said on Thursday.
Kovács told public media that no one should be in any doubt that the European left was pro-immigration and now had specific plans to allow migrants the right to citizenship and to vote in elections, the politician said.
The Hungarian people, he added, have clearly and repeatedly expressed their view on the matter.
In the recent National Consultation public survey, more than 90 percent of respondents agreed that Hungary does not support the immigration policy of Brussels and its plan to resettle migrants, he said.
Fresh data show that so far
this year more than 81,000 people have attempted to enter Hungary illegally,
a far higher figure than before the 2015 migration crisis, he said, adding that Hungary has been fending off migration pressure, which is constantly mounting, for the sixth successive year.
Kovacs said the bigger problem, however, was pressure from Brussels borne from its migration policy. The left wing in Hungary would ape the European left if it won next year’s general election.
“This can’t happen with a civic government in place in Hungary,” Kovács said.

EU is insanity.
Hungary has the right to decide whom it allows or does not allow to participate in its elections not Brussels and the Soro’s lap dogs.
This is coming to you in Hungary if you vote for Opposition in 2022.
Just saying!
They mark “v” for peace and after getting education in Europe aftrr escaping thier murderous regimes in their home lands they come to western civilization to make terror and hate out of missing their ancient history- izlam’s logic
Idiotic – idea of the European Union to “propose” this type of voting right under citizenship to emigrants.
We have serious problems mounting in the European Union on the highly sensitive issue of Migrants – the growing numbers which will not cease in the immediate Future – and this subject of voting rights – DISASTROUS.
Hungary – our elected Government under Democracy – they decide – rightly decide – issues such as this article refers.
History – when this has been introduced into countries – it has destroyed there core values and furthermore there Sovereignty.
Catastrophic for Europe – if the European Union – goes down this “perilous” path.
I am an EU immigrant living in Hungary, paying taxes etc.

The answer is : because i want to , have the right to and why not.
