V4 in Poland – Orbán calls for strong EU

Change language:
Krynica, Poland, September 6 (MTI) – The Visegrad countries agree that there is a need for a strong European Union, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on Tuesday.
The EU is currently wealthy but weak, which is the worst combination. And this is what caused trouble in the form of uncontrolled migration, Orbán said in a statement at an economic forum held in Krynica in southern Poland.
“This process should be halted,” Orbán said adding that defence against uncontrolled migration should be taken as far south as possible, so help must be offered to Bulgaria.
The forum was also attended by the prime ministers of the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia as well as Ukraine.
Speaking after talks with his counterparts, Orbán said that when Ukraine decided to head down a new path it had received nothing but support from the EU. Ukraine was promised that EU member states were ready to accept it into their community step by step, Orbán said.
