The court ruling in the quota case “does not include any kind of obligation” for Hungary, Government Spokesperson Zoltán Kovács emphasised on Hungarian M1 television’s Thursday evening current affairs program.

Hungary is taking action using all possible legal and political instruments to prevent the establishment of a distribution mechanism with no upper threshold, “we will defend our right to decide for ourselves who lives in this country and who we will allow in”, he said.

According to Mr. Kovács, the plan for unlimited, and therefore uncontrollable distribution, “which nobody has ever decided on” in view of the fact that heads of state and government voted against it twice the year before last, has been “lying low on certain desks” for years.

George Soros’s resettlement plan has “clearly found sympathetic ears” in certain European circles and institutions, he added.

The Government Spokesperson pointed out that since the spring of 2015 the European left “has put into question the crisis in several stages”, denying the existence of the migration crisis, the preparations for the quota system and their intent to make that system permanent.
