Hungary is in a heated standoff with the European Union over a €200 million fine imposed by the European Court of Justice for violating EU asylum laws. Prime Minister Viktor Orban has threatened to bus asylum seekers directly to Brussels in retaliation, prompting condemnation from EU officials. Hungarian officials argue that Hungary has spent significant resources on border control without adequate EU support and that other countries have received financial aid. The EU has threatened further financial penalties if Hungary does not comply with the ruling. This dispute underscores deeper tensions over migration policies and the rule of law within the EU, with Hungary accusing the EU of unfairly burdening them while neglecting to protect the bloc's borders. The conflict could further strain European unity as both sides refuse to back down.
