Chancellor Merkel described the meeting saying that Mr Orbán claimed Hungary felt, “not at all responsible for the processing of asylum applications”, and looked to countries like Greece to take responsibility for processing asylum claims instead, Der Spiegel reports.
The German leader added that the federal government could not see Europe “decouple” itself from asylum seekers and legitimate refugees but noted that the two leaders did find common ground on wanting to secure the European Union’s external borders.
The visit is the first time since 2014, before the height of the migrant crisis, that the Hungarian leader has formally been to Berlin. Since the crisis, Hungary has been firm on rejecting large numbers of migrants by first building a fence along the border with Serbia and then rejecting proposals to redistribute migrants throughout EU member states.

They have not bought the EU Kool-Aid, they know the consequences for inaction. You are right.
