Hungary's prime minister accuses Brussels of wanting to "use violence to turn Hungary into a country of migrants" The new Pact on Migration agreed yesterday in Luxembourg does not actually provide for the compulsory transfer of migrants. Instead, it provides for the "principle of solidarity", with economic contributions or other aid.

"They want to relocate migrants to Hungary by force. This is unacceptable," Viktor Orban said on his Facebook page on Monday. "Brussels abuses its power," he said.
