- 2 Jul 2015 9:00 AM
The majority of Hungarians reject illegal migrants regardless of party affiliation, a survey carried out by Nézőpont on commission from weekly Heti Válasz between June 19 and 25 showed. The representative survey was conducted by phoning 1,000 people and 76% of them said that illegal migrants posed a problem for Hungary, Nézőpont said.
Even among the supporters of left-wing parties nearly 60% said illegal migration was a problem.
At the same time, more than 50% of those interviewed said they would take in ethnic Hungarians from abroad, the persecuted and those arriving legally.
However, 57% said they rejected economic migrants and 73% rejected illegal migrants. Fully 63% said that increased migration posed a security risk for Hungary.
