Hungarian official’s harsh words: Hungary ready to transport migrants to Brussels by buses

Should the European Union force Hungary to accept illegal migrants, Hungary will offer to transport them to Brussels once the procedure is completed, a state secretary of the interior ministry told a press conference on Friday.

With the fence on its southern border, Hungary is defending the external borders of the Schengen Area as well as its own, Bence Rétvári said. Hungarian policemen and border hunters have foiled 1 million illegal entry attempts since 2015, he added.

Nevertheless, the Court of Justice of the European Union “has imposed a gigantic, disproportionate, unfair fine on Hungary, trying to force it to allow masses of migrants into the country and to abandon its migration policy,” he said.

Rétvári’s Facebook post on the subject: “The buses 🚍 are ready! If Brussels wants more migrants, they can get them ☝🏻.  But we want to protect the border, we want to protect the security ❗️ of Hungary 🇭🇺 ”

Even the displays of the buses read “Röszke -> Brussels” (Röszke is a Hungarian settlement on the Serbian border.)
