The Council of Europe will seek an explanation from Hungary
The Council of Europe announced today that it will seek an explanation from the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban on the new legislative framework adopted by the country to stop the influx of immigrants.
"I will write today to Prime Minister (Hungary) to ask him the final text of the law adopted" to deal with the immigration crisis, in order to clarify whether that legislation is compatible with the European Convention on Human Rights, said in a statement the Secretary General of the Council Thormpgiorn Jagland.
The Jagland said "worried" by the reforms allow Budapest to preach the country into "crisis situation" due to massive immigration.
"We will ask for assurances that if declared crisis, Hungary will continue to implement its obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights," he added.
Pursuant to article 15 of the Convention, a country may ignore some of the rights guaranteed by the Convention but should inform about this the general secretary, reminded Jagland.
The Council of Europe involved 47 countries, including the 28 countries-members of the EU but also Turkey and Russia.
