Fox News: "Trump says Hungary's border stance keeps crime down, says Europe 'flooding' with migrants"
Fox News reports President Donald Trump said yesterday that European leaders should respect Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban "because he's been right on immigration." President Trump warmly welcomed Orban to the White House.
"Look what's happened to Europe with the immigration. They have people flooding Europe all over the place. And it's hurting it. The crime rates are way up. A lot of bad things are happening. His crime rates are very low. They're the same as they always were, which is very little crime. Because he's kept it the way it should be," Trump said.
"He was right on immigration. They were wrong. They are flooding Europe with people from all over the world. And Europe is becoming a different place. And I tell the leaders all the time, ‘you better stop or you're not going to have Europe anymore.’ It's a very dangerous thing they're doing," Trump added.
Hungary long has pursued tough – some would say xenophobic and anti-Muslim – immigration enforcement policies.
