Bóka: EU calls for change and ‘it cannot wait’

János Bóka, Hungary’s European affairs minister, said the European Union calls for change and “it cannot wait”.

Posting on Facebook on Wednesday, ahead of the European Commission’s publishing its draft budget for the next seven years, Minister Bóka said the draft to be presented would “make clear the difference between Brussels’ and Hungary’s views on Europe”.

“Brussels would send Hungarians’ money to Ukraine, while we would keep those funds at home … Brussels would open doors wide open to illegal migration, while we would stem it,” the minister said.

“We will clearly see what kind of Europe they want, and we will clearly indicate what kind of Europe we wish to see,” Minister Bóka said.
