Gulyas: Brussels 'must stop migrant card scheme'

Brussels "must stop its scheme of granting prepaid bank cards to migrants without delay", the head of the Prime Minister's Office said at a government press briefing. It was "worrying", he said, "that terrorists can also get the bank cards" and it was "unacceptable" that the European Union and the United Nations financially aided their travel arrangements and accommodation in Europe. The government has information about the threat of a "migrant caravan", he said, adding that it was not yet known whether this threat would materialise. "But if it does, Hungary's border protection forces are prepared and capable of protecting the country."
