Tamás Menczer has emphasized that “migration poses a security risk” after Felipe Gonzalez Morales, rapporteur of the United Nations, critiscized Hungary for its stance on the matter.
“Thirty terrorist attacks have been carried out, in which over 300 people died and 1,300 were injured,” the State Secretary at the Foreign Ministry said. “We have seen parallel societies and a number of other crimes.”
According to MTI, Menczer said migration was an “open issue”, adding that “according to the most cautious estimates 30-35 million people living east and south of Europe could decide on setting off for Europe any time”.
The UN rapporteur “criticises us for not allowing migrants free movement in Hungary, as well as for the border fence and transit zones,” Menczer said, adding that the fence along Hungary’s southern border with Serbia “will stay where it is because it serves the security of Hungarian people”.
