Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán marked ten years of defending the country and Europe from illegal migration, highlighting the positive results of his anti-migration policies since 2015.
In a social media post, Orbán emphasized that Hungary introduced the legal border barrier a decade ago, sealing the southern border and stating that only those permitted to may set foot on Hungarian soil.
He emphasized Hungary’s security in contrast to worsening public safety in major Western European cities, including Berlin, Stockholm, Vienna, and Paris, where migrant-related violence has become more frequent.
”In Brussels, we were slammed and threatened, and in Western capitals, we were stigmatized. But we Hungarians persevered.” he stated.
Recent protests in London, involving hundreds of thousands, reflect growing public frustration with migration.
On X, Zoltán Kovács, Secretary of State for International Communication, reaffirmed the government’s position:
Hungary has become one of Europe’s safest countries. Crimes against life and property are at record lows. The number of illegal migrants: zero.
Kovács also criticized Brussels for continuing to manage rather than stop migration, imposing fines and pressuring countries that resist:
Bureaucrats there still want to manage migration instead of stopping it, blackmailing and punishing those who resist. Hungary pays €1M every single day.
Orbán and his government insist that Hungary will maintain its migrant-free status, resisting Brussels’ pressures and safeguarding the country’s security, stating “Our homeland is not for sale, our future is not negotiable, and the security of the Hungarian people is not up for compromise.”
