Hungarian government to scrap transit zones
Change language:
The government has decided to close down its transit zones on the Hungarian-Serbian border, the head of the Prime Minister’s Office said on Thursday, adding that asylum seekers will now only get to submit their applications at Hungary’s foreign missions.
The process of shutting down the transit zones is already under way, Gergely Gulyás told an online press briefing. Currently, four migrants are being held in detention and 280 will be taken to a refugee reception centre, he said. The interior, foreign and justice ministries are taking the necessary steps in the matter, Gulyás added.
The Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) last week ruled that keeping asylum seekers in the transit zone constitutes “detention”.
Gulyás said the transit zones had successfully protected Hungary’s borders, calling the CJEU’s ruling “regrettable”. As Hungary is obliged to comply with the ruling, it is forced to shut down the transit zones, he added.
Commenting on remarks by German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, Gulyás said the minister was right to doubt that the European Union could come up with a migrant distribution mechanism that would be backed by all member states. He said this was a “significant victory” for Hungarian diplomacy, arguing that Hungary had worked hard to make it clear that the country could not be forced to let others determine whom Hungarians should live together with.
At the same time, Hungary is involved in the fight against migration, Gulyás said, noting the Hungary Helps humanitarian scheme for aid projects abroad.
On another subject, Gulyás said Hungarian opposition MEPs were working against the interests of the country in the European Parliament, “as they have been over the past several months in connection with the response to the epidemic”. Now, Gulyás said, opposition MEPs were also undermining national interests in connection with the next EU budget. He added, however, that the crucial parts of the budget had to be approved by the European Council rather than the EP.
Concerning a draft of country-specific recommendations for Hungary released by the European Commission on Wednesday, the PM’s chief of staff said the report was an assessment of the country’s economic policy, adding that statements in the report pertaining to any other area were “irrelevant”. The report acknowledges a number of positive developments, Gulyas said, noting the finding that Hungary’s jobless rate has remained below the EU average during the coronavirus crisis.
Perhaps the Hungarian Government will now ENSURE that all illegal ‘migrants’ / ‘refugees’ / ‘asylum seekers’ caught within Hungary’s borders are IMMEDIATELY DEPORTED from Hungary.
If countries from which these persons came are NOT prepared to take such individuals, then Hungary’s courts must impose upon them – within 7 days – a MANDATORY JAIL SENTENCE (for breaking Hungary’s laws – the exact one[s] can be determined by the Hungarian prosecutor) which is to be served in HUNGARIAN ‘PENAL ZONES’ located within the previous HUNGARIAN ‘TRANSIT ZONES’.
On completion of their jail terms, these FELONS must then be deported to Belgium where Merkel’s ‘Pink Poodles’ in Brussels can determine their long-term future residential status within the E.U.
After all, those idiots CREATED the problem so it is only fitting that they now solve it !
