Hungary voted in support of extra funding for migration

At the European Union summit this week, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán voted in support of extra funding for migration in the EU budget and continues to support it. Bertalan Havasi, the prime minister’s press chief, commented on Facebook on Saturday following French President Emmanuel Macron’s remarks concerning a 50 billion euro aid package for Ukraine. Macron said that PM Orbán’s decision on Thursday to block the package was “dishonest” because the decision also raised obstacles to the use of funding for managing migration. “It was a long evening, and the French president obviously does not remember it correctly,” Havasi said.
