Croatia let not only Hungary down but the entire European Union, and gave up all legal obligations that are also binding on it, Government Spokesperson Zoltán Kovács stated at his press conference held in Mohács.
Croatia’s asylum system collapsed on Friday; it was ruined by human traffickers in one day, the Hungarian Government Spokesperson stated at a press conference held in Beremend in Baranya County on Friday evening.
According to the Minister in charge of the Prime Minister’s Office, the human traffickers have defeated Croatia, and the Hungary’s latest task is to protect the Hungarian-Croatian border. “The best strategy for stopping the wave of immigrants would have been for Germany, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Slovakia and Hungary to jointly close their borders”, János Lázár said.
“The police are prepared to handle the situation caused by mass migration along the Croatian-Hungarian border”, the Government Spokesperson said on Friday in Szeged.
The migration chain must be disrupted, Government Spokesperson Zoltán Kovács stressed on the Thursday evening programme of the public service current affairs news channel M1.
Wednesday’s events have confirmed the legitimacy of the legal, security and live-force border fence, János Lázár, the Minister heading the Prime Minister’s Office said at his press conference „Governmentinfo 23 – What does the Government do and why?” which he held jointly with State Secretary for Government Communications András Giró-Szász.
Hungary and the Hungarian police protecting the border were the victims of a pre-meditated, conscious attack at the border crossing station on the express road at Röszke on Wednesday, the Government Spokesperson stated on Thursday in Szeged.
“By yesterday evening, order was restored at the Röszke border crossing station, where a group of armed migrants on the Serbian side of the border damaged the station’s fence and attacked police who were guarding the state border”, the Government Spokesperson announced at the scene on Wednesday night.
Armed migrants attacked the Röszke 2 border crossing station and broke in the fence on Wednesday afternoon; people attempting to forcibly enter Hungarian territory at the scene are being held back by a police cordon, the Government Spokesperson said at a press conference held on location at 5:30pm yesterday evening.
The Government will be increasing child protection capacities required to care for minors arriving in Hungary without accompaniment, the Government Spokesperson announced in Szeged.
