Hungary will not accept illegal immigrants or pay fines for refusing them, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto has said<\/strong><\/p>\n Hungary has vowed a “revolt”<\/em> against the EU in 2026, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto has said, declaring that Budapest will lead a rebellion against the bloc’s new Migration Pact.<\/p>\n The policy, expected to take effect in July, forces member states to contribute in proportion to their population and total GDP to the alleviation of migratory pressure on the worst-affected nations within the bloc.<\/p>\n Each member state is obliged to either accept a certain number of migrants from hotspots or pay €20,000 ($23,000) per person they refuse to take in.<\/p>\n ”Just as in 2025, we will not allow a single migrant into Hungary in 2026 and we will not pay a single forint from Hungarians’ money,”<\/em> Szijjarto wrote on Facebook on Sunday, blasting the requirement as “absurd.”<\/em><\/p>\n \n Read more<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The EU mandate clashes with Hungary’s own tough national measures, which include border fences and a rejection of mandatory quotas. The stance has already led Brussels to penalize Budapest, with the European Court of Justice forcing it to pay a daily penalty of €1 million since June 2024 for non-compliance.<\/p>\n Szijjarto argued that the pact primarily serves nations where security and social stability have deteriorated so severely that their main objective is now to expel migrants as swiftly as possible.<\/p>\n Prime Minister Viktor Orban previously warned that Hungary will not comply with the new EU requirements, condemning the policy as “outrageous.”<\/em> Orban is known for his staunch criticism of EU policies, including those related to migration and the Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n Poland, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic have also opposed the EU migration pact. Warsaw and Bratislava have demanded an exemption, and the new government in Prague wants the policy renegotiated.<\/p>\n
