V4 countries declare mutual solidarity in migrant issue

The Prime Ministers of the Visegrád Group, met in Prague this Friday for an extraordinary V4 summit on migration and expressed “profound sadness over the loss of lives of thousands of people in the context of the current migration situation in Europe” as well as their solidarity with Hungary.

The statement issued after the meeting underlines that migration flows
present a complex and serious challenge for the EU and its member states and Hungary
belongs among those most exposed to migratory pressures and affected by their
impacts. The prime ministers, therefore, reiterate their full support to
Hungary in tackling this challenge. As an expression of their solidarity, the prime
ministers stand ready to provide Hungary with further assistance.

The countries of the Visegrad Group acknowledge that all Member States should contribute to finding adequate and effective long-lasting solutions as impacts of migration flows are felt across the whole Union with rising urgency. In the spirit of shared European values of humanism, solidarity and responsibility, the countries of the Visegrad Group have continuously taken an active part in defining and implementing many measures in response to the migration challenges.
