Hungary's PM: Migrants Aren't Refugees, but Muslim Invaders
 [PJ] In an interview with German newspaper Bild, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has said that the "the migrant crisis" is, in effect, "an invasion."When asked by Bild why Hungary hasn't deemed itself able to welcome two thousand refugees while Germany has let in two million of them, Orban answered: "[T]he difference is: you want those migrants. We do not. We do our job by closing the Schengen-border with Serbia. Doing so has cost us one billion euros since 2015 and Brussels pays us nothing for it." "The solution to this problem isn't to divide people who are illegally in the EU among EU member states. We believe that we have to solve the root of the problem instead of bringing these immigrants here [Europe]," the prime minister continued. "We do not consider these people as Muslim refugees. We consider them as Muslim invaders. To travel to Hungary from Syria they have to cross through four other countries that are, although not as rich as Germany, certainly stable. They don't flee for their lives. This proves that they are economic migrants seeking a better life," Orban concluded. Bild then asked Orban whether this makes those migrants inferior in some way. "If someone wants to come to your home," the PM answered, "then he knocks on the door and asks: 'Can we come in, can we stay?' They did not do that. Instead, they broke through the border illegally. That was not a wave of refugees, that was an invasion." Posted by: Besoeker 2018-01-10 |
