Hungary supported extra funding for migration

At the European Union summit this week, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán voted in support of extra funding for migration in the EU budget and continues to support it, the prime minister’s press chief said on Facebook on Saturday.

Bertalan Havasi reacted to French President Emmanuel Macron’s remarks concerning a 50 billion euro aid package for Ukraine. Macron said that Orban’s decision on Thursday to block the package was “dishonest” because the decision also raised obstacles to the use of funding for managing migration.

“It was a long evening, and the French president obviously does not remember it correctly,” Havasi said.
