At a forum in Nyíregyháza, Chief Security Advisor to the Prime Minister György Bakondi said that “there is a huge population reservoir behind migration in Asia and Africa, and especially in the Middle East”.
At one of a series of events to promote the October referendum on the compulsory resettlement quota, György Bakondi said that there are currently three million migrants in Turkey and one million in Libya and Lebanon.

“In Lebanon and Jordan we could easily put up the “no vacancies” sign; these two countries have more migrants per capita than Turkey”, the Chief Advisor said, yet migrants from Turkey are the only ones who have so far set out for Europe.
At the event held at the Váci Mihály Pubic Education Centre and attended by several hundred people, Mr. Bakondi stressed that the admitting of migrants into Hungary with no upper limit would very soon lead to a similar situation as experienced in many Western European countries, where segregated societies have come into being.
There are those who originally “belong there” with regard to their national identity, and there are groups that belong to the Christian-Judaic culture and to the Islamic culture. The latter do not accept the regulations of the given state and do not abide by them in everyday life; they keep to their own, independent laws and this is what controls their lives, he said.

“In the long term this represents a grave danger to our culture, our identity, our past and of course our future”, Mr. Bakondi stated.
He pointed out that in the near future the leaders of the European Union’s Member States would be deciding on the eight-element quota package adopted by the European Parliament and the European Commission.
“Since there is a looming political danger, a political decision must ensue, and accordingly the Hungarian Government decided to ask the people their opinion and let Hungary decide the issue”, the Chief Advisor said.

Mr. Bakondi stressed that the migrants are also victims from several aspects; firstly victims of their own governments, which do not provide even minimal living conditions for them at home, in addition to which they are also the targets of people smuggling organisations and the terrorists who are mingled in amongst them.
“They are also victims of Brussels politics, which lured them to Europe with various promises”, the Prime Minister’s Chief Advisor said, adding that in this respect the migrants now include huge numbers of people who are disappointed in their expectations and whose will to integrate and find employment “can only be taken into account as a rather remote possibility”.
According to Mr. Bakondi, three groups of people who have arrived with the migrants represent a specific danger: trained soldiers who have taken part in the fighting, former secret service agents who have experience in organising terrorist networks and so-called Wahhabi missionaries.

“The task of the latter is to exploit the dissatisfaction of disappointed migrants and often second or third generation immigrants who have been living in Western Europe for a long time to make them followers of radical Islam”, he explained.
In his lecture, Mr. Bakondi pointed out with relation to terrorism that the methods used for perpetrating terrorist attacks in Europe have changed recently; in contrast to previous experience whereby terrorists usually demanded money or the freeing of their associates, they now “do not want to survive” the attack and “want to murder people”.
“The above clearly shows that terrorism is capable of becoming a global force”, he added.

“Europe happens to be the current target of their attacks and hundreds of people have died in vain because they expected the government they voted for to protect them”, he said.
