 Hungary will not extradite refugees to Ukraine. We will not find out whether Ukrainians consider them conscripts or not. Based on basic humanity, we will not allow them to be sent to their deaths

Szemien said that all refugees from Ukraine are safe in Hungary and receive the necessary assistance. According to him, all Ukrainian citizens are welcome in Hungary.

According to him, in the case of Hungarians in Transcarpathia, it is Budapest's national duty, and in the case of Ukrainians, it is "a humanitarian and legal gesture, since no one whose life is at risk is subject to extradition.

 "And Ukrainians want to release them to send them to the war, to the frontline, where people are dying. So all those who have fled to us from Ukraine are safe, and they will not be extradited,"  the Deputy Prime Minister confirmed.
