Orbán administration: illegal migration = terrorism
Hungary and several other countries in central Europe dare to say openly what certain western European countries do not, which is that if illegal migration increases, the threat of terrorism in Europe also increases, the interior ministry’s state secretary said on Thursday in Luxembourg on the sidelines of a meeting of EU interior ministers.
Bence Rétvári told Hungarian journalists that no tangible steps had been taken in the protection of the EU’s external borders and the EU only made the activities of people smugglers easier by “an automatic acceptance of migrants”, quotas and its migration pact.
“This may increase the terrorist threat in Europe, too,” he said. The only solution, he added, was to protect the external borders and require decisions on asylum applications to be taken outside EU territory, Retvari said, adding that “there is no other solution, no other way”.
