George Soros and his network pose a serious threat to Hungary's national security, János Lázár, the minister heading the Prime Minister's office, said.
The minister told Magyar Idők that in a democratic society it is incomprehensible that the word of an extremely rich individual from America “is worth more in Brussels that that of a Member of the European Parliament”.
“As the minister in charge of supervising the secret services, I can state that there are countries in our vicinity in which the Soros network has a tangible influence on decision-making, the outcome of elections and the make-up of governments," he said.
“I regard it as a serious risk to national security that the organizations funded by Soros actively transported illegal immigrants to Hungary’s border," Lázár said.
In relation to the recent ruling by the European Court of Justice in the quota case, the minister said that he hoped EU leaders would understand that we don't all think in the same way and that instead of central decisions forced through using sanctions or under duress, it would also be worth listening to and understanding what the Central Europeans have to say.
