"The Hungarian government agrees with European Council President Donald Tusk that the European Union's mandatory quota for refugees is a divisive and ineffective way to handle the migration crisis", the Minister Heading the PM's Office said.
At his weekly press conference, Janos Lazar criticised the European Commission for "attacking" Donald Tusk over his remarks, MTI reported. He said the commission had "far exceeded" its scope of authority, adding that people who criticised Tusk were "unable to tackle the crisis". Lazar insisted that the government's position had been "given weight" by the opinion of "2.3 million participants in the National Consultation on George Soros's plan".
