According to the ZDF report, Hungary only shows a refugee-friendly face to the outside world. - can be read on the Mandiner. The evening news of ZDF on March 6 focused on the war in Ukraine.
One of the program's reports was about Hungary. The presenter told how many Ukrainian refugees were accepted from Poland to Moldova; then he mentions Hungary for the last time, saying that we welcomed almost 170,000 people, "but not always with open arms", adds the host before the report begins.
The report film made in Fehérgyarmat is exclusively about the complaints of a Ukrainian family who came to Hungary, in Fehérgyarmat, through Moldova and Romania, where a temporary immigration center has now been set up - while the camera shows strict, uniformed police officers behind a fence.
From the report, we can get to know the Ukrainian family, whose two female members can leave the accommodation because they have biometric passports, but the father of the family cannot, because he has a "normal" passport, and according to the Hungarian authorities, he must take care of special registration. Previously, however, they were able to get through Moldova and Romania without problems.
A helper from Germany also complains that since there is a war, how can the refugees, who have crossed the border and are safe, get papers in this way, but according to him, they cannot go any further.
"Hungary shows a refugee-friendly face to the outside world. But where the world's public is not so attentive, people who are forced to flee the war are arrested in a way that doesn't seem very friendly, to put it cautiously," the on-site reporter finally says to the camera.
About the fact that tens of thousands of people arrive in Hungary every day directly from Ukraine, and that refugees from the border to the capital receive civil and state assistance for travel, food, and accommodation - that Hungarian society has shown unprecedented solidarity for decades, massively helping Ukrainian refugees by all means, transporting and feeding them and giving them accommodation in their own houses - not a word is mentioned in the report of the German public media.
