Amnesty International criticises Hungary’s migration policy

London, October 8 (MTI) – Amnesty International criticises the Hungarian government’s migration policies and makes proposals on measures in a report released in London on Thursday.

Hungary’s attempts to insulate itself against a regional, and wider global, refugee crisis can only be achieved at the expense of the respect of its international human rights and refugee law obligations, the world’s leading human rights organisation said in its comprehensive report.

Hungary’s policies also represent a structural threat to the rule of law and the respect for human rights that other member states and EU institutions cannot afford to ignore, AI said in the report it conducted by interviewing migrants, among others.
