The EU’s top court on Thursday fined Hungary 200 million euros ($216 million) and imposed a daily one-million-euro penalty for failing to follow the bloc’s asylum laws and illegally deporting migrants, a decision Budapest slammed as “unacceptable”.
Avoids law for four years. Finally gets fined a measly 200 million and one million every day from there on out till it’s solved. Basically just an additional cost to do business instead of a punishment. Amazing.
Don’t fine. Just stop all subsidies to Hungary. Europe is a two-way street. And if Hungary doesn’t like that it can gtfo.
€565m and then €365m per year for all your immigration problems solved is a bargain. We up to tens of billions overspent on our problems.
Who are “we” in this context?
UK
Hate to be the one to break these news to you, but the UK is no longer an EU member state.
“Solved”
I guess it’s fine as long as EPP led governments in Poland and Lithuania do this, just not Orban because he’s a bit of an ass.
