Hungary also wants an increase in measures to prevent illegal migration, so the authorities in Romania will strengthen the border guard with the allocation of more policemen, and cooperation with Hungarian counterparts will also increase so that the number of migrants crossing the country's borders to Western Europe is substantial. further reduced.
"After last week's talks in Sofia with Bulgarian Minister Stoyanov and European Commissioner Johansson, today, in Budapest, I had a working meeting with Hungarian Minister Sándor Pinter. Hungary will continue to support Romania's accession to the Schengen Area with land borders in 2024.
I also discussed with my Hungarian colleague measures to combat illegal migration, to strengthen the border, to combat human trafficking and drug trafficking. To this end, we will supplement the number of both border and judicial police officers who, in mixed teams with Hungarian colleagues, will multiply our efforts on the lines of work exposed above."
