The Hungarian government is se to launch a nationwide „national consultation” survey on the „Soros-plan”, news portal Origo reported. Lajos Kósa confirmed their information.
Citing the prime minister's address to the ruling Fidesz party's parliamentary group meeting in Velence in central Hungary, Origo reported that the government is set to launch a nationwide "national consultation" survey on the "Soros plan". The portal cited Viktor Orban as having told the meeting that the opposition was being "controlled from the outside". On the subject of the European Court of Justice's decision to dismiss Hungary and Slovakia's legal challenge against the European Union's migrant resettlement scheme, Orban was quoted as saying that "the real danger is the Soros plan", referring to US financier George Soros. Orban added that though Brussels would try to carry out "Soros's will", this could be prevented in next year's general election.
"If the people support us, if we win for a third time, Brussels will not be able to defeat us and the Soros plan will fail," Origo quoted the prime minister as saying.
At his press conference on Thursday, outgoing Fidesz group leader Lajos Kósa said it was necessary "to learn what people think about the Soros scheme", MTI reported. Fidesz, therefore, has requested the government to conduct a "national consultation" on the subject. Kósa insisted that the alleged "Soros plan" involved accommodating an annual 1 million immigrants in Europe, who would be distributed on a mandatory basis and without any restriction. Hungary would be obliged to dismantle the fence along its southern border, while entrants would be granted an equivalent of 9 million forints. To finance the latter obligation, European Union members would need to take out a loan of 30 billion euros, Kósa said.
