The prime minister insisted that Hungary’s measures to defend its border “are not aimed against Serbia or the Serbian people”.
Hungary wants to maintain and expand its legal border crossings, and will not close the border at all but “we will do all we can to stop illegal border crossings,” Orban said.
Hungary is in “dire straits” as “the new wave of migration” is not just coming from the south, but “there is an intent to send back illegal border crossers to Hungary from the west, too”, he said. “As uncomfortable as it may be, we are forced to protect Hungary’s southern border,” the prime minister said.
