Brussels wants to “flood” Hungary with migrants, “but it will not succeed”, the communications director of ruling Fidesz-Christian Democrats said on Tuesday.

Fidesz’s head of communications: Brussels wants to flood Hungary with migrants

Tamás Menczer, Fidesz’s head of communications,  said on Facebook that a European Court ruling imposing a 200 million euro fine on Hungary on the ground that the Hungarian migrant system does not meet EU regulations was “politically motivated”.

Menczer said Hungary had complied with the directive to close its transit zones, even though it would have preferred not to, and then the EU refused to accept Hungary’s move to receive asylum requests at a representation in Belgrade.

“There’s an obvious political motivation in the background: Brussels wants to flood Hungary with migrants. Well, it won’t succeed,” he added.

Menczer said he was “absolutely certain” that Hungarians would not be made to pay the fine. Hungary has been protecting the external borders of the EU at a cost of 2 billion euros already, he added.
