Soros: Refugee issue common problem for Europe

The Hungarian government concentrates on power and its own financial interests rather than the public good, George Soros said in an article published by the daily Nepszava on Friday. The US billionaire referred to the government's "National Consultation" survey, and said that the "propaganda campaign" launched to thwart the "Soros plan" had failed. He noted that, according to the government, over 2.3 million people had participated in the survey, and said that "the Hungarian people will certainly find a way to ascertain the accuracy of official figures" and insisted that the "deceptive campaign" had failed to pull the wool over most Hungarians' eyes.
