Hungary under attack by liberals and left-wingers in the EP?

According to the Government Spokesperson, left-wing and liberal politicians attacked Hungary because of its immigration policy on Monday in the European Parliament (EP), based on complaints by international organisations financed by George Soros.

Zoltán Kovács spoke to Hungarian news agency MTI with relation to the fact that on Monday the European Parliament’s Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE) had discussed Hungary’s migration policy.

The Government Spokesperson said it is absolutely obvious that “left-wing and liberal politicians who call themselves progressive” cannot accept the fact that Hungary is not prepared to allow illegal immigrants to enter the country or the territory of the European Union, and that it is punishing people who break the law by crossing the border illegally.

According to Mr. Kovács, these politicians expressed sharp criticism towards Minister of Justice László Trócsányi, who defended Hungary’s measures and stood up for strict border protection.
