Hungarian minister calls for halting illegal immigration on land, at sea
Spain’s example demonstrates that illegal migration should be halted not only on land but at sea, too, Péter Szijjártó, Hungary’s minister of foreign affairs and trade, said after talks with Santiago Abascal, leader of the Spanish right-wing VOX party, in Madrid on Thursday.

The minister noted that Spain has been exposed to strong migratory pressure over the past few years, with a 50 percent rise registered in the number of Africans arriving illegally in the country this year. For this reason, there is a pressing need to mobilise resources to stop migration through maritime routes, he said.
The best way to do so is to prevent illegal migrants from boarding ships heading for Europe, Szijjártó said. For this reason, European nations have a vested interest in cooperating with the north African countries and helping them retain their stability, he said.

“Defending borders, identifying terrorists among the migrants and tough action against human smugglers are priorities for Europe,” he said. Szijjártó praised the “increasingly robust” development of bilateral economic relations. Two-way trade, he noted, increased by 20 percent in 2021 and is expected to reach 5 billion euros by the end of the year.
Later today, Szijjártó is scheduled to meet his Spanish counterpart Jose Manuel Alvarez.

Hungary’s first action should be to withdraw from the UN Refugee/illegal Migrant Charter (or whatever it is called). Only, Hungarians have the right to live in Hungary and those that have been given permission by the government. Hungary has closed its border in 2017, it is no use trying to cross illegally. Furthermore, Austria’s border, Slovakia’s border, Czech and Polish borders are also closed, There is not way for the illegal aliens to proceed to Western EU by this route.. It is also useless to cross into Croatia because the Slovenian border with Austria is also closed.
Illegal migrants should apply at Consulates of countries where they wish to live instead of breaking Hungary’s laws. NGOs should help illegal aliens to fill out applications for Wester EU’s Consulates instead of abetting migrants to break laws.
