Migration is not an issue that will just go away and it is becoming an increasingly unavoidable subject at every EU summit, Politico summed up the opinions of diplomats the news portal asked.
Recently, the EU adopted by majority vote a proposal on a mandatory migrant quota scheme, but Hungary and Poland continue to find the deal unacceptable and demand that all migration decisions be adopted only by consensus even though, according to Politico, the EU doesn't require that.
Hungary rejects the European Commission's proposal for a new migration and asylum pact and considers it unacceptable that, according to the text, member states would be forced to distribute thousands or even tens of thousands of migrants among themselves,
said Balazs Orban, political director of the Hungarian prime minister, in Brussels on Thursday.
