V4 citizens allowed into Hungary even after Sept 1 – here are the conditions
Czech, Slovak and Polish citizens with negative coronavirus tests will be allowed into Hungary after Sept. 1, if the test results are not older than five days, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in a post on Facebook on Monday.
Hungary is banning foreigners from entering the country from Sept. 1, in view of the rising numbers of coronavirus infections.
However,
citizens of the Visegrad Group countries will be allowed into Hungary even after Sept. 1,
if they can show negative coronavirus test results not older than five days, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in a post on Facebook on Monday.
Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban had talks in Bled, Slovenia, on Monday, and agreed to exempt from the ban Czech citizens who had already booked their accommodation in Hungary for September, Szijjarto said. The prime ministers have discussed the Hungarian security measures in detail, and the Czech Republic has given guarantees regarding its own security measures, he added.
Later in the day, Slovak and Polish citizens were also included in the exemption,
as the Visegrad countries have cooperated closely in the fight against the coronavirus,
Szijjarto said on Facebook.
Hungarians spending their holidays in Visegrad Group countries will be allowed to forgo quarantine with just one negative test result, Szijjarto said.

So the ban didn’t even last a day, and now the rules change again. This isn’t Orban’s own fifedom where he can open and close the castle gates when it pleases him and when his palm has been crossed with gold.
So a negative test taken in a backward eastern european backwater has more validity than one taken in advanced countries such as Germany or France? It makes no sense.
@Paulus,
You yourself as always, make absolutely no sense
Paulus, Tell me , whats it like to be a total fuckwit?
Unfortunately the pandemic has turned into a political tool to do whatever any government pleases independent of whether it makes sense or not. No matter if it’s about borders, monitoring the public, schools or economy.
when you are small thinking, egoistic and frustrated
I cannot find a rational explanation for this…. ad-hoc, arbitrary, capricious, unpredictable, inconsistent, erratic, not though through… decision… this is the consequence of a system with no checks and balances where one man takes a decision and nobody dares to question it…
Small leaders think small. Hungarian leadership’s vision of world and society is just so narrow. 19th C brains living in the 21st C.
