Minister in Athens: borders should be zones of fences and armed forces!
Change language:
No effort should be spared to prevent a new wave of migration, all the more so because it would not only carry security and civilisational risks but contribute to the spread of the pandemic, too, Péter Szijjártó, Hungary’s minister of foreign affairs and trade, said in Athens on Friday.
The European Union is going to face tough challenges as the international forces’ failure in Afghanistan will trigger a massive wave of migration, Szijjarto told a press conference after talks with his Greek counterpart Nikos Dendias. The minister stressed the need to avoid the mistakes committed in 2015 but noted that some statements by west European leaders can once again be interpreted as invitations. The two governments agree that the waves of migration should be halted as far from Europe’s borders as possible, he said, adding that migration policies should focus on the defence of borders.
Péter Szijjártó: NGOs have no business along the borders, which should rather be zones of fences and armed forces,”
