Orban’s Vienna talks “damage control”, say Socialists

Budapest, September 25 (MTI) – The Hungarian prime minister’s visit to Vienna for talks with Austrian leaders indicates that there had been no de facto coordination between the two countries during the migrant crisis at all, the opposition Socialists said on Friday.

The Hungarian government has until now communicated with its neighbours including Austria only through messages, diplomatic notes and harsh statements, party leader Jozsef Tobias told MTI.

“What the government is doing now is damage control,” he said, in reaction to Viktor Orban’s talks with Chancellor Werner Faymann and Vice Chancellor Reinhold Mitterlehner.

It has become clear that there is no “Hungarian way” for resolving the migration issue and that the government is incapable of tackling the situation alone, Tobias said.

The Socialists demand that the government should guarantee the security of the Hungarian people through a common European solution and provide humane treatment for the migrants crossing Hungary, he said.

  1. If Austria closes its border with Hungary and there are 15,000 plus migrants ” in transit ” then Hungary is left holding the unwanted parcel. Be careful Hungary and follow the system of only allowing small numbers in when the same numbers go out.
    European nations only co-operate when its suits their individual needs ; do what is best for your country.
    Thank you …dailynewshugary,com ; your coverage is much appreciated by myself here in the UK.

  2. @Kevin,
    With Mama Merkel continuing to ring the dinner bell. All the guards in Austria, won’t be able to hold back these migrants on to their destination. Questions is once they all get there and realize that dinner is over, then where to next? Hmmm?

    So what’s your plan? Please share as the rest of Europe has lost their ‘Magic Wand”, but if your’s is still working, Please tell us how. Or go back to your Gulags.
