UN High Commissioner “repeatedly offends” Hungary, says Szijjrátó

Prague, June 13 (MTI) – The human rights high commissioner of the United Nations has “repeatedly offended Hungary and Hungarians”, Péter Szijjártó, Hungary’s foreign minister, said in Prague on Monday.

Szijjártó voiced resentment over recent remarks by Zeid Ra’ad Al-Hussein in which the high commissioner referred to human rights violations in some central and eastern European countries including Hungary.

“I take that as offending Hungary and the Hungarian people,” Szijjártó said, adding that the only reason behind the “continued vituperation” could be the Hungarian government’s reluctance to “open up the border before the migrants”.
