The Hungarian Parliament has passed the set of laws known as the “Stop Soros” package which criminalizes any activities which support illegal immigration—including legal and physical aid of any sort.

According to the Prime Minister’s Cabinet Office, the “Stop Soros legislative package and the amendment to the Fundamental Law assert the will of the Hungarian people, providing the country with additional powerful protection against illegal migration”.

In terms of the amendment, the law on the police, the Penal Code, the law on asylum, the law on the state borders and the law on offences have been amended to state that the organization of illegal immigration is an illegal act, and a relevant criminal scenario will be accordingly incorporated into the Penal Code.
