”Problems must be solved on the spot, in Europe we can only treat the consequences”, senior lecturer of Corvinus University, Tamás Molnár told Magyar Hírlap about migration.
Migrants have many different motivations, wars and armed conflicts can definitely be an important reason for people to take the road to Europe. ”Hope is worth the risk”, senior lecturer of Corvinus University, Tamás Molnár said. Most people sell everything they have in order to be able leave, many receive help from their families. People who are really persecuted may even have a lot of money, it doesn't matter, as refugees, defined by the Geneva Conventions are not driven by economic reasons. Most of their money ends up in the hands of the smugglers during their journey that can take even years. One of the reasons of the increased migration flow to Hungary is that crises in North Africa, the Middle East or Middle Asia have grown much bigger.
The crowd is very heterogenous, among real refugees there can be economic migrants, smugglers and even terrorists. Many abuse the system to get a few months of financial safety as they can't be sent home during the process.
The export of democracy on its own has never worked, this can't be done with guns, Molnár said. According to the expert the aids of Western countries usually don't reach those who need it as the money is seized by local corruption and the greedy elite.
Illegal migrants are so well-informed that it proves the existence of a working communication net, said secret services expert László Földi. According to the expert all of these people have mobile phones and information about what should they say when they get caught. ”It can't be a coincidence that those who reach us suddenly lose all their documents, their past, their identity”, Földi told Magyar Hírlap. There's a serious organisation behind all this, because this is big business, he said. For those who are trained to organise the logistics of armies of course it can't be a problem to ”move civilians”. ”This is not decided on Congo or another poor African country”, Földi added. According to the expert this is practically a war, based on tactical and stragetical decisions, and European secret services are aware of the huge task they face but there are many obstacles.
