EU files court case against Hungary migrant policy

European Comission has made a decision to refer Hungary to court over “non-compliance of it’s asylum and return legislation with EU law”. The EC demands Hungary to change it’s legislation designed to combat illegal immigration.

The EU’s decision comes the day after Hungary announced it withdraws from the UN Migration Pact, which, according to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, aims to guarantee the basic human rights of all refugees. However, some European politicians argue that this accord confines states’ sovereignty in terms of migration issues.
