The Hungarian threat to bus migrants to Brussels has shown how the EU value of 'freedom of movement' is in tatters as Belgium threatened to block them reaching Brussels.
According to Euronews:
Brussels mayor Philippe Close has censured Hungary's plan to bus illegal migrants from the Hungarian-Serbian border to the Belgian capital, saying that the Belgian authorities stand ready to block the buses.
"I've spoken to the Belgian Prime Minister (Alexander de Croo). We will block these buses if they ever do depart," Close said in an interview with Euronews.
He also confirmed another cherished EU value, crushing dissent and bullying its so-called 'far-right' members to toe the EU line:
This is not how we do politics," Close told Euronews. "Hungary, if it continues, will feel the consequences."
"Orbán's government is also a small government. We will resist and Hungary will buckle under the weight of Europe (...) We will not be held hostage to a far-right government like Orbán's."
Das ist ein befehl!
