Hungary's PM demands EU refund
"We are not only protecting ourselves, but Europe as well. At least half of this sum should be reimbursed," he stated.
He added that Hungary would propose to EU leaders a "red card" procedure to enhance the sovereignty of national parliaments that would give national parliaments the power to stop debates in Europe if they are perceived to be violating national interests.
Civil rights groups have criticised Orban's government for cracking down on the rights of refugees and migrants.
