“The European Parliament has to goals: to make migration legal, and to maintain continued pressure on those states that do not agree with this”, György Bakondi said on Hungarian M1 television’s Thursday morning current affairs program.

The Chief Security Advisor to the Prime Minister said that the migration crisis, which began in 2015, has had major political consequences, because in the opinion of the citizens of certain European countries what has happened since then is not good.

Migration pressure has been reduced compared to 2015, when hundreds of thousands of people also marched through Hungary, because several countries began defending themselves, and the number of migrants along the Italian-Libyan migration route fell by 80 percent, he added.

Parallel to this, 120 percent more migrants arrived in Spain last year, in view of which the Spanish Government has introduced strict measures, he stated.
