“What is at stake at the April general elections is the Hungarian future, whether or not Hungary will be an immigrant country”, the Chief Security Advisor to the Prime Minister said on Hungarian M1 television’s Saturday evening current affairs program.

According to the Minster of State for Government Communication, if we do not succeed in stopping migration it could “ruin” the future of the country for the next 50-100 years.
