Hungary has declared war on the European Union and has refused to accept illegal immigrants or pay fines.

Hungary's Prime Minister, right-wing Viktor Orbán, warned Brussels that his country will not implement any of the provisions of the new European Union Migration and Asylum Pact, despite the recent sanctions imposed by the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU).

Through a message posted on his official X account, Orbán reinforced his stance against open border policies and denounced economic pressure from the Union.

"With today's decision, Brussels intends to force Hungary to pay even more or to take in migrants. This is unacceptable. Hungary already spends enough to protect the Union's external border. We will not take in any migrants nor pay for other countries' migrants. Hungary will not implement the measures of the Migration Pact. The rebellion begins!," stated the leader.

Orbán's criticism comes after the approval of the Migration Pact, a regulatory package that seeks to standardize asylum criteria across the EU and establishes a mechanism of "mandatory solidarity."

Far from giving in, Hungarian authorities reiterated that they will not pay the fine. They also maintained that the strict defense of borders and the rejection of migration quotas are matters of national sovereignty, even if this means facing significant financial consequences.

This attitude reinforces a strategy that Orbán has maintained for years: presenting himself as a defender of European identity in the face of open border migration policies imposed by Brussels.

With his call for "rebellion," the Hungarian prime minister made it clear that he will not change his stance, even if his country continues to be the victim of sanctions and fines from the European bloc.
