A new media campaign by the Hungarian government accuses globalist billionaire George Soros and the EU of pushing open-borders policies. Brussels indignantly dismissed the campaign as a conspiracy theory and fake news.<\/span><\/p>\n

Billboards with the images of Soros and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker tell Hungarians that Brussels officials \u201care launching experimental immigration projects with African countries; want to introduce mandatory settlement quotas; want to reduce financial assistance for countries opposed to migration,\u201d<\/em> that last part specifically referring to Hungary.<\/span><\/p>\n

Further accusations appeared on the government of Hungary\u2019s Facebook page<\/a><\/strong>, which says the EU wants to impose settlement quotas, weaken EU members\u2019 border protections and make immigration easier.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The EU Commission rushed to outright dismiss the ad campaign, calling it a conspiracy and \u201cfake news,<\/em>\u201d without going into detail in addressing Budapest\u2019s concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is shocking that such a ludicrous conspiracy theory has reached the mainstream to the extent it has. There is no conspiracy, Hungarians deserve facts, not fiction,\u201d<\/em> spokesman Margaritis Schinas told reporters in Brussels on Tuesday. The facts, according to Schinas, are that the EU has \u201czero plans\u201d<\/em> for humanitarian visas, while member states get to decide on the level of legal migration.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, Brussels has repeatedly clashed with Budapest over Hungary\u2019s immigration policy \u2013 or rather, its refusal to support the open-borders approach ushered in by German Chancellor Angela Merkel in 2015. Time and again Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has rejected EU demands to admit migrants, building a fence with Serbia and even EU member Croatia in order to secure his country\u2019s border.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last week, Orban proposed a program of subsidizing Hungarian birthrates, arguing that \u201cWe need Hungarian children\u201d<\/em> rather than immigrants.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Soros has openly advocated<\/a><\/strong> immigration as the solution to Europe\u2019s dwindling birthrates, and berated Hungary and other \u201cpopulist\u201d<\/em> members for endangering the survival of the EU, comparing it to the Soviet Union circa 1991.<\/span><\/p>\n

With elections for the European Parliament scheduled for May, Orban\u2019s Fidesz party does not hide the desire to have the anti-migration bloc become a majority.<\/span><\/p>\n
