Hungary’s Prime Minister, Viktor Orban, said the European Union has a plan “to accommodate at least 10,000 migrants” in the country.
According to Orban, this would “crush the country financially,” he said to a local TV broadcaster on Sunday. “We must speak openly,” Orban said and added that, “We either spend the money on developments or build a migrant haven.”
Orban vowed that the yield of Hungary’s economy should be spent “on Hungarians, on Hungarian youth, pensioners, and Hungarian municipalities rather than migrants from other countries”.
“Let us resist, let us protect Hungary and let there be a national government which will stand up for the country”, he said.
Orban and his Fidesz party’s minister have been clear since the start of the migrant crisis and oppose the EU’s immigration relocation schemes. They don’t want the country to become a migrant destination.
