In addition, the EU is “not likely” to contribute to that budget, the paper quoted Rétvári. By comparison, Rétvári said that “migrants would cost Hungary as much as the introduction of career models for teachers” and added that the country does not have the capacity to accommodate “innumerable” people.

The quota system would jeopardise “social security and jobs”.

“We need to decide if the money of Hungarian taxpayers should be spent on health, family benefits, welfare services, education, or on economic migrants”, Rétvári insisted.
