The new package also prescribes a compulsory solidarity mechanism, whereby member states can decide whether to take in a certain number of asylum seekers, or to finance their return to their countries of origin. Brussels has estimated this at around €22,000 (over HUF 8 million) per migrant.
Brussels is abusing its power. They want to transfer migrants into Hungary, forcibly. This is unacceptable! They want to turn Hungary into an immigrant country by force
Hungarian Prime Minister Orban wrote, reacting to the decision.
Germany received 80 percent more asylum applications between January and March than at the same time last year.

The rise of the AfD also indicates that Germans are far from satisfied with the performance of the so-called traffic-light coalition. The alliance of Social Democrats, Greens and Liberals has been wracked by internal strife recently, with some polls suggesting that the governing parties no longer have a majority in terms of popularity.
The protest vote comes into play when a government fails to satisfy voters with its policies, and this is currently the public's perception of the so-called traffic-light coalition,
the political analyst opined.
