Hungary government faces pressure over EU migration pact implementation

The European Union migration pact entered into force on 12 June 2026. Hungarian KDNP deputy vice‑president Latorcai Csaba said the previous clear stance of refusing the pact "must now be clarified" and urged the coalition government to give a straightforward answer, noting that the issue concerns the country's future.

Opinion columnist Gulyás Gergely echoed the call for clarity, stating “Holnap hatályba lép a migrációs paktum” and urging the Fidesz‑KDNP parliamentary group to adopt a resolution rejecting its implementation.
