Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban compared illegal migrants in the country to a biological bomb.

His remarks came on the air of radio Kossuth.

He explained his statement by the fact that illegal migrants pose a biological threat to Hungarian citizens amid the COVID-19 spread.

According to a radio release, the prime minister is calling for an immediate end of illegal and uncontrolled migration.

As the politician noted, every migrant should be assessed as a potential source of the spread of infection, although not all of them are.

Orban added that the human rights defenders who are on the side of migrants are liberal whiners, to whom his harsh remark is addressed. He urged the internal affairs minister to continue to suppress attempts of illegal migration.
