Hungary detaining migrants and sending them back

Mar 7, 2017 1:27 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

The new bill also allows authorities to detain all adult asylum seekers in its territory and summarily return those refused to the Serbian border as part of “crisis” measures in place until September.

Right before Christmas, Hungary’s PM Victor Orban “praised the victories of the populist Five Star Movement in the Italian referendum and the election of Donald Trump in the United States, claiming these developments are just the beginning of the ‘rebellion.'” He went on to declare: “let’s make Hungary great again.”

Orban also stirred controversy in July when he “described the arrival of asylum seekers in Europe as ‘a poison’, and declared to Germany’s Angela Merkel that “we won’t pay for your error.”

“Humanitarian” organizations are now railing against the new law to detain asylum seekers and send them back home. If European leaders were more careful in their approach to migrants and had more of a sense of responsibility to their own citizens, Orban would not have had to resort to such drastic measures. Orban correctly referred to migration as a “trojan horse for terrorism.”

“Hungarian parliament approves law allowing all asylum seekers to be detained”, by Lizzie Dearden, Independent, March 7, 2017:

The Hungarian parliament has approved a controversial law enabling all asylum seekers in the country to be detained and forced back into neighbouring Serbia.

Viktor Orban, the Prime Minister, claimed migrants were keeping his country “under siege” and must be defended against.

Speaking at a swearing-in ceremony for a group of specialist guards known as “border hunters”, he said that Hungary could only count on itself for protection.

Mr Orban, leader of the right-wing populist Fidesz party and a supporter of Donald Trump, has already ordered the reinforcement of fences along Hungary’s southern border and claimed refugees are a threat to Europe’s Christian identity and culture.

The new legislation will see refugees locked in border camps made of shipping containers while their cases are decided.

Applications will be declared inadmissible for anyone who entered the Hungary from Serbia or a “safe third country”, while the appeal period will be cut to just three days and migrants may have to cover the costs of their own imprisonment.

The new bill also allows authorities to detain all adult asylum seekers in its territory and summarily return those refused to the Serbian border as part of “crisis” measures in place until September.

The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) said it was “deeply concerned” by the measure, which combines with other policies to make it “nearly impossible for asylum-seekers to enter the country, apply for asylum and receive international protection”.

“This new law violates Hungary’s obligations under international and EU laws, and will have a terrible physical and psychological impact on women, children and men who have already greatly suffered,” spokesperson Cécile Pouilly told reporters in Geneva.

“Under international and EU laws, the detention of refugees and asylum-seekers can only be justified on a limited number of grounds, and only where it is necessary, reasonable and proportionate…children should never be detained under any conditions.”

Humanitarian organisations had appealed to the European Commission to intervene to block the draft bill, saying it was “at odds with EU, human rights and refugee law” in a letter last month…..

        All leaders in the west should be educated on the koran and islam…along with the public…as a preventive measure for being deceived by the muslim groups who present a fantasy islam upon any resistance to the migration, so they know when isis quotes the verses…they know that they are hearing the authentic doctrine and has not been hijacked.

          All anyone really needs to do is to watch Ann Barnhardt’s video “Islamic Sexuality – A Study of Evil,” particularly the few minutes on Muslim female genital mutilation.

          Then check out forced FGM (Huma Abedin’s mother writes and publishes books promoting worldwide forced Musiim mutilation), and add two plus two.

          The women of America would stop Islam in its tracks in this country if they ever snapped to the fact that the Muslims want to forcibly butcher them and their daughters.

      The reform of European policy is beginning in Slavic and Hungarian central Europe where reforms have traditionally begun in the past. The Czech and Hungarian ISLAMO-REALISM is going to spread all over Europe soon.

      Islam and Europe do not mix.

      • Jeanette says

        Mar 8, 2017 at 12:33 pm

        Islam doesn’t mix with anything or anyone; that’s why the Koran commands that all non-Muslims must be converted, enslaved or killed.

    This man is right on the mark! I fully support his move to protect his country and Hungary’s workers, women and children from being taken over and raped as allowed in islamic primitive culture

    • Jeanette says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 12:35 pm

      And as allowed in Germany, Sweden, and Denmark. And I have no doubt that there is a LOT of Muslim on non-Muslim crime in America that isn’t publicized (just as the media doesn’t publicize crimes by illegal aliens).

    Praise Yeshua that Mr Orban has the courage to stand against the satanic onslaught. Other leaders should take a page or two from his book!!

    Hooray for Mr. Orban ! A man who cares about **Hungarians**, not jihadists posing as ‘children’.

    I’m emigrating to Hungary, if they’ll have me.

    Good for Hungary but removing these economic parasites, posing as refugees, to Serbia does not solve the problem. These Muslims are still in Europe. Removing them to one of the 60+ ” muslim” countries in the world, starting with Saudi Arabia, is the solution that should be aimed for.

    • tom parry says

      Mar 7, 2017 at 5:05 pm

      Right Charli- where are our Saudi and arab “friends” ?? Instead we have some UN guy from Geneva on a pay roll of ??? telling Hungary what to do?? If the invaders could pay some jihad smuggler lots of money then maybe they should pay for their incarceration. I live in Germany and people shrug their shoulders – “what can we do”– well do like Hugary!!!! vote AFD wach auf Deutchland

    • Stan Lee says

      Mar 7, 2017 at 10:19 pm

      Instead of sending them to Serbia, which is dominantly Orthodox Christian, they should be instead sent to Kosovo, which is located next to Serbia and which is Muslim, so their brethren in Islam can welcome them. Of course, Kosovans are Muslims, but of European stock. It would be interesting to see what happens if a Mid-East or African Muslim “refugee” runs afoul of Kosovan authorities after raping a Kosovan girl or woman. I doubt that Kosovan authorities would grant forgiveness to a rape perpetrator.

      • Paul says

        Mar 8, 2017 at 7:45 am

        No, actually, Kososvo belongs to Serbia; the Mulslims there are either interlopers or descendants of forced converts from Muslim invasions. Return Kosovo to Serbia, don’t import more Muslims.

    • Vekafitzfrancis says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 10:16 am

      The Serbs don’t want them either. They made enemies of (Muslim) Albanians in the 90s, they will simply usher them out of their borders as well.

    • Jeanette says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 12:37 pm

      Bingo! Let the Muslims take care of their beloved Muslim brothers.

    Good wish President Trump would get an okay from congress and the courts on his EO n immigration bill. Since other countries see the need not to allow certain countries to immigrate to their country. This should waken our congress and courts up and support President Trump policy on immigration.

    …”will have a terrible physical and psychological impact on women, children and men…” spokesperson Cécile Pouilly told reporters in Geneva.”

    We Europeans have also suffered from the killings, bombs, rapes, riots and abuse from these so-called ‘refugees’. At least Mr Orban knows where his duty lies.

    • Rufolino says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 3:23 am

      Yes indeed Spike. The FIRST DUTY of a sovereign government is to protect its own citizens.

      Mad Merkel and her ilk have put the interests of migrants above the security of their own nations.

        Mar 8, 2017 at 12:45 pm

        U.N. Agenda 2030 calls for a reduction of world human population from about 7 billion down to 1/2 billion, as that is the population that the globalists want.

        Many national leaders are globalists. Muslims kill more people than any other single group/religion.

        How convenient for the globalist leaders that the Muslims they inflict on their native populations assault and kill people!

        • gravenimage says

          Mar 9, 2017 at 2:17 am

          Jeanette, you keep posting this. I am no fan of the UN, but where in Agenda 2030 does it call for the slaughter of most of the world’s population? I’ve read the whole motion, and while much of it is disturbingly socialist, there are no plans for mass murder in it that I can see.

  13. JMB says

    Mar 7, 2017 at 4:46 pm

    Not too Far Off Topic;

    1, There have been lots of pictures on the news of of the Chinese peoples Congress, I assume this is the supreme meeting of the ruling party. But note, absolutely no diversity in the ranks whatsoever. Apparently ethnic minorities including Muslims get no say and protest or dissent is not encouraged. Where are the howls of protest from the UN or even the EU? And remember China is all our biggest trading partner.

    2, It has been pointed out that Japan has taken in less than 40 refugees in the pat year. Perhaps the UN had better tell us to boycott our Nikons and Toyotas!

    In other words Mr Orban is not the only world leader who is protecting his country.

    I am not an inhumane person but commonsense would suggest that accepting unlimited refugees from Middle East Wars or African starvation is only a short term and unsustainable band aid solution. The developed world should take a different approach like helping solve the problems where they originate.

  14. Angemon says

    Mar 7, 2017 at 4:49 pm

    The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) said it was “deeply concerned” by the measure, which combines with other policies to make it “nearly impossible for asylum-seekers to enter the country, apply for asylum and receive international protection”.

    The UNHRC is lying. Go look up Hungary on a map and tell me which of its neighbouring nations is not deemed a safe country for asylum seekers. An Iraqi, Syrian, Afghani, etc. entering Hungary had to go by countries deemed safe, which si where they should be applying for asylum.

    • gravenimage says

      Mar 7, 2017 at 9:37 pm

      Very true, Angemon.

  15. lasslax says

    When the turks in the name of Allah marched against Europe, Hungary stopped them, but paid a very high price. Almost half its population dead, one third of the country under islamic rules for 150 years.
    The rest of Europe did not help, they were busy with fighting each other, colonisation of North and South America, etc. No help against islam from anywhere.
    And now this same countries want to tell Hungary to let this people in and take care of them?
    Thanks, but no thanks, says Orbán.

    Also, what else should Hungary do? Let tens of thousends of unidentified people without passport, without any identification FREELY go wherever they want within the EU?
    REALLY?

    • Jeanette says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 12:48 pm

      Yes, because …

      U.N. Agenda 2030 calls for a reduction of world human population from about 7 billion down to 1/2 billion, as that is the population that the globalists want.

      Many national leaders are globalists. Muslims kill more people than any other single group/religion.

    • underbed cat says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 4:36 pm

      I think the problem has always been and continues to be the insufficient accurate information about the Quran’s verses, sharia law, the imams legal role that have always been restricted from the understanding of non-believers by the organizations that precede mass migration to silence any negative information. The very migration itself is labeled as refuge from war unknown is the other purpose with the biggest agenda it is also commanded to migrate to foreign countries to spread the acceptance of the religion after funding and building mosques that thru outreach to influence and control information. Apparently Orban knows more than most leaders and knows he must protect against invasion and control thru terror.

  16. Matthieu Baudin says

    Mar 7, 2017 at 7:26 pm

    An alternative course of action (or inaction) would be to simply open up the borders of the Magyar Republic (or just fail to guard them) and let the nation swell in numbers to resemble something like a very large Airport Waiting Lounge or a mini United Nations thereby showcasing to the entire world what a radically inclusive country the former Hungary had become!

    • Charli Main says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 3:59 am

      If your cousins are between the ages of 6 years and 9 years old they would be in the highest risk rape category, from Muslims practicing their religion. Muslims model themselves on Mad Mohammed of Mecca, the ” most perfect man that has ever lived”.

  18. Crusades Were Right! says

    Let large numbers of Mohammedans into an advanced country and the result will be a crime wave, economic crisis and violence.

    “Ah, but what about the Huguenots who came to Britain at the end of the 17th century?”

    The Huguenots came from another advanced European Christian culture and were quickly absorbed into British society. Seen any Huguenots in Britain lately?

    Mohammedans, unlike Huguenots, will become MORE numerous with time.

    • Jeanette says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 12:50 pm

    Well done Mr Orban. Teach Merkel and the Swedish lefties some common sense. The UNHCR also need to know the difference between economic invaders with a toxic religion and true refugees.

  20. Warren Raymond says

    Mar 8, 2017 at 10:59 am

    Yes, Mohammedans are a“trojan horse for terrorism”, but that is only a side show. The far greater problem is Mohammedan settlement among infidels (where they don’t belong), and their total rejection of infidel society. Then comes the persistent demands for political power, welfare and status; and the eventual destruction of the nation state along with the culture and civilisation that must be replaced with Islam. That is their religious duty, and the soldiers of allah take that duty very seriously. So much, that they’re willing to kill and die to make their religion/ideology dominant by all and any means.

    So tell me: what are YOU prepared to do for your society, your culture and civilisation?

    • Jeanette says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 12:51 pm

      We’re probably putting ourselves in danger just commenting about the evils of Islam.

    Just as Hungary can send unsuccessful refugees back to Serbia or other safe country – other EU nations can send migrants back to Hungary, if that was their point of entry into the Schengen border free zone.

    Theoretically Hungary could be stuck with hundreds of thousands of unwanted migrants. And bearing the cost of returning migrants to North Africa and Afghanistan. [This is like thousands of migrants pouring through the US-Mexican border everyday – but because there are better welfare benefits in Canada – they only wish to pass through the US to reach Canada. That the US would allow this ~ no chance!!]

    And wonder what the UNHCR’s position is on the intake of Mideast refugees into nearby Arab Gulf states.

    A look at the migration travel distances involved:

    Syria to Germany 3,730 km or 2,318 miles
    Syria to Hungary 2,746 km or 1,706 miles
    Syria to Sweden 4,979 km or 3094 miles

    Damascus, Syria to Al Hadithah, Saudi Arabia 307 km or 190 miles — 4 hrs by car.
    Homs, Syria to Al Hadithah, Saudi Arabia is 465 km or 288 miles — 6 hrs by car
    As-Suwayda, Syria to Al Hadithah, Saudi Arabia is 247 km or 153 miles — 3:30 hrs by car

    Many Syrian refugees are situated in the Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan – and to travel to the nearest border town in Al Hadithah, Saudi Arabia, from here would be about 164 km or 100 miles.

    With the close proximity of Arab nations, why are these Muslim refugees not being given refuge in locations across the Middle East? With the understanding that once the war is over they can be returned to rebuild their homelands. Why is the onus being placed on countries literally thousands of miles away to take them?

    Perhaps we should start calling richer Arab nations racist too!

    • Warren Raymond says

      Mar 8, 2017 at 3:02 pm

      The majority of arrivals are black Africans, second are Pakistanis & Banglatrash & Afghans.

    Good for Orban. Orban knows how to be very analytical about the Muslim refugee crises that is causing a lot of problems in Europe. Europe needs very good political leaders, like Orban. Orban is a very intelligent politician and man.

  25. Peggy says

    Mar 8, 2017 at 11:55 pm

    Great that Hungary has this attitude.
    So, Hungary returns them to Serbia. Serbia returns them to Greece. Greece tries to return them to Turkey and bingo, we have a huge problem.
    This doesn’t look like it’s going to end well. Europe will have to fight another bloody war to rid themselves of Islam.
