Early hours of sunday morning after serving nine years for a botched robbery attempt at a Las Vegas Hotel in two thousand and seven. Those are the headlines talk trial jazeera is next. Youre. Going to do what you want. Thanks to the migration crisis in europe hungarys profile is higher than other but its controversial and e. U. Court says budapest is wrongly denying asylum to mike fleeman war and deprivation the government of Prime Minister viktor orban is defiant calls the ruling a joke and says the e. U. Will pay for its Security Council with serbia or avan is also accused of cracking down on political activists and free speech hes even trying to close a university started by the hunt gary an american billionaire george soros a man considered a crack pipe would have passed so is hungary willing to play by the use rules and embrace its values or is its chosen path the way of the future peter c. R. T. Hungarys for ninnis talks to aljazeera. Peter so foreign minister of hungary thanks so much for joining us here thanks for being with azure thank you obviously migration is the big issue that everyone thinks of when we talk about your country hungary this was your reaction to the European Court of justice ruling on immigration quotas back on september sixth and im quoting this decision jeopardizes the security and future of all of europe. Politics has raped european law and values do you regret using the word rape well. That doesnt sound that bad. Reluctance on them but but you know to go to the substance i really consider this decision as a political one because if you have a look at the do your opinion procedure of decisions and the european law you can see that the decision about the o. B. Got three quotas of or made in a way which while weighted the european regulations because the highest body lets do it this way the number one Decision Making body of the European Union is the European Council which comes its over you know the heads of state and government and heads of state of government and the government made the decision that they introduce a quota system on a voluntary basis and afterwards the council of the ministers of interior and justice which are definitely on the lower shelf in the structure than the European Council they change his decision and decided in favor of an obligate three quota system so thats thats not really a while ation of european regulations number one number two. That we have some very important treaties in the European Union shango right dublin and these treaties cannot be modified by a decision of a Ministerial Council these treaties can only be modified food the procedures of the parliaments of the Member States of the European Union the consensus all around the twenty eight members and such kind of a decision introducing going to get three quota is basically the modification the amendment of the dublin treaty and because it takes away partly the right of the single Member States to make their decisions on their own whom they let and third of territory of their countries or whom they do not like now that others of the obviously hungry would want to go back and change this and try to deal with the numbers. But given that the people who support the mandatory quotas have won what can hungary say in order to get them to revisit this idea of a mandatory quota and then following on that in the interim whats the harm in letting in Thirteen Hundred people a year were talking about a entrees you hear of nearly ten million Million People yeah so we have a principle position here you know over think of that. Regarding the migration crisis we have to bring help the very things needed. So we have to help those people whose rights were violated either very day leave or very close to where they live because that helps them to return to their homes as soon as possible as soon as conflict or military conflict or wars are over but serious going on and yet seventy years too long time too long or so our position is that we should not encourage more people to try to take the life hazard life risk and and come to europe but we should help them to stay as close to their homes as possible thats why our initiative was has always been too far to give Financial Aid more to turkey Jordan Jordan lebanon the kurdish region of iraq because these entities have been taken care of many refugees and help them to be able to continue to do so because if the conflicts are over these people can return this is a number one number two you know about the bobby got to report the system and about those ones who praise it and who says that its a good decision because you asked me how we can commit you know the thing is that if you have a look at the whole system you see that the decision has been made more than two years ago and it will expire on the twenty six of september which are very serious and very soon and the completion is only twenty five percent meaning that those ones who are now very loud about the about the exclusivity of the obligatory quota system as a solution those countries who are very loudly criticizing us not to take Illegal Migrants those have completed this decision up to twenty five percent so this is hypocrisy this is hypocrisy so what do you do in the interim when you have the u. N. High commissioner for refugees political grounding saying that hungary regardless of what the e. C. G. Has decided isnt living up to its treaty obligations as a member of the world body is does he have a fair criticism here i met him as he was in budapest because you know i prefer dial. And i prefer those dialogues which. Are coming first and then statements after sometimes we face that bureaucrats are hiring off the shores of International Organizations for works to make their statements and then come to us on the ask come to us and ask i dont think thats the right way to do it and mr grundy when he was here i assured him that hungary has always. Has always who filled all the obligations we have on the International Level when the migrants came to hungary we have offered them the supply which the treatment which is written in the International Contracts bought and the regulations bought those people were not ready to go to refugee camps those people occupy public areas those people block the highways those people are killed by the railway stations and you know i dont think that there would be a fair expectations to expectation towards any country to to give the supply to the Illegal Migrants where they just want to have it on the open on public areas they refuse to cooperate with the local for repairs they refuse to go to the the refugee camps and they have while eighty two very important european regulations at one time shanghai regulation because there was only border coming from a peaceful country peaceful country by the way because if you put this in a principle basis why should the allow anyone to while later our border from serbia to hungary theres no war in serbia no one no was life is in danger in serbia so i think that these are very important principle questions not to not to forget about the fact that we as a government have a very important obligation and responsibility we have to ensure and guarantee security for the country and for the people i held it there jen any Security Threat from people i mean its one thing to say yes there are people camping out in trains. Ancient or on sidewalks we have that problem here in the United States but is there an actual security problem or is this more a case of we dont have the social system set up to be able to accommodate people as theyre trying to transit to a third country no no i mean once again the supply it was there but there are rules you have to comply with if you come to another country right i mean of the the rule of International Rule is that youve got your supply of the record you cant you have to do it you have to go there and get your supplies number one number two if you have a look at the the recent developments in iraq like security wise put into consideration the last two years youll see many terrorist attacks happened which was another famine phenomenon before i remember a couple decades ago one or two decades ago as we were watching news on television you know from the middle east. We found that this square never happen in europe and now this is part of everyday life so security situation has never been that but in europe than currently in modern history and threat of terror has never been that serious as it is currently and this is a direct consequence of the fact that one and a half million Illegal Migrants very allowed to come to europe without any kind of control regulation or check and they decide on say that those one and a half millions are terrorists of course i dont say that what i say that done such a big illegal massive influx of people gave the opportunity for terrorist organizations you know to send their fighters that terrorists to come to come to europe and theres another problem which was never dealt with because that was kind of what the book about which it was not some pretty lets say agreed to speak about and this is the d. D. Issue of perilous societies in some European Countries so the former integration schemes about which we fought that they are the best in the world just simply didnt work out so in the ration was not successful in the upcoming in the in the last couple of years or one or two decades so why not. Why something new why not try a new way to integrate people in hungary itself has had sunni arab sunni muslims i should say in their history going back more than a thousand years people from all across Ottoman Empire and from points east have come through hungry and shared their history and culture why not find a new way to welcome people to help them settle thats what they want to do or help them get to another country thats what they want to do you know if you go to another country i think its a its an expectation with a good reason that you that you respect the laws and regulations right right you dont behave aggressively you dont while a to border you dont attack police you dont throw stones and and the piece of concrete and bottles on the glass on their own policemen who are there to to protect you to do border and to ensure and guarantee security so you know. Such kind of a illegal migration is according to an astounding a bath phenomenon we just simply dont like it and dont support it i mean if you if someone would like to come to hungary everyone is welcome to come to hungary but but respecting the laws the way you get get there the way you act there the gray you behave there respect laws and regulations unfortunately i cannot say this about those four hundred thousand who enter the territory of hungary in two thousand and fifteen and are left to austrian and german well obviously the migrant issue is one that isnt just for hungary yeah its where all of europe whether or not theyre a you member split it has created tension within the e. U. Theres been criticism from germany theres been criticism from france as you know of the way hungry has responded and its gotten to a bigger question of whether hungary shares the e. U. Values is that a fair criticism no you know i think its very unfair. Are you finally unfair because theres an issue where we dont agree thats not really think illegal migration is a is a security fred to europe others say that the illegal migration is acceptable we dont think its acceptable but but that should not give the reason to anyone to question do european the. Deed should not question whether hungary respects European Values or not because we have been then theres of the European Union the view of the members of the European Union are strong member and we share the european regulations and share the European Values of course but but you know blackmailing others accusing others putting pressure on others thats not the european behavior our emmanuelle must fall and i will merkel trying to blackmail hungary in government i didnt put it on a on a personal basis what i said there was many blackmailing against those countries which didnt want to take part in the o. B. Get three quarters system by the European Commission for example so if i if you want me to to put. To give you examples of blackmailing like blackmailing is when when the European Commission or commission theyre suppressed in hungary or any other sensory drop in country to take away the european Financial Resources because we dont agree with the migratory policy of brussels well Michael Mccall has said exactly that a lot but that has nothing to do with each other i mean i mean the european Financial Resources are based on contracts and treated you know when hungary joined European Union and others remember joined European Union he opened up our markets so many french German Italian british whatever bajan companies came to our market so that eighty thousand for yet made a lot of profit and have been making other probably the since ever says that around eighty percent of the european Financial Resources are taken advantage of by these companies you know so we should be fair and correct and balanced and should not hide one part of the of the truth and just you know put another part on the light so. Mixing or combining or confusing the issues of european resources and our position on migration is just simply a blank meaning has the Prime Minister mr or been told president must call to cut it out has he said the same thing to chancellor merkel. Well there was one meeting between the countries and france and as far as i know there was a lets say vivid discussion and debate and that the German Government the german chancellor herself are pretty much of a air of our position so its open we never hide our position so we are a fair you know we tell everyone what fink it is we can afford is it of is it a worry though that they may if as you suggest have already violated policies what is there a fear that they might actually go to the very economic sharing that makes up the e. U. And possibly hurt investment in hungary and economy you know we have a very open economy. Export over g. D. P. Ratio is around ninety percent we have eight thousand six hundred euros f. The our stock per capita in the country which shows that we are pretty much dependent on external factors but germany is a number one investor in the country we have six thousand German Companies in hungary active they employ free hundred thousand people and live with more than one quarter of all f. B. I. Stock has come from germany German Companies are investing continuously new ones are coming and by the us is a number two investor but not a member of the European Union member but the german industry and the hunger an economy is very tightly linked to each other and i can if you allow me i would like to give you a and Interesting Data everyone speaks about the german French Corporation and economy corporations when it comes to the future of europe how you regained competitiveness and so on and so forth but you know there are four central European Countries which is called the sugar group poland Czech Republic slovakia hungary the trade of all you between germany and these four central European Countries is fifty five. Higher than the trade value between germany and france so that shows that the economy cooperation is extremely tight between Central Europe and germany because Central Europe is basically a backyard for the german industry which is then the backbone of the of the entire broken economy does the vision for then benefit because of bracks it assuming that the u. K. Does leave the e. U. Though i have to tell you that. The decision of the british very much although we are respected because we are not british and its only the british will come make a decision about their own future but i regretted that decision very much because that cause is because huge Economic Loss and i think a significant political loss of the European Union because imagine with british leaving European Union of you lose one seventh of its Economic Performance one seventh and the single markets going to be closer to be a smaller definitely going to decrease so that well horrible european competitiveness definitely what does it do for hungary and workers there people who are already young thing because theyre finding earning money in england or in wales or in Northern Ireland or scotland isnt go
