Hungary’s government spokesman has
revealed that 3,000 migrants and refugees are entering his country every day,
just hours after furious clashes broke out between migrants and police at a
train station in Budapest.
Hundreds of people protested outside
the city’s Eastern Railway Terminus on Tuesday, demanding they be allowed to
board trains to Germany and Austria.
All trains were cancelled out of the
city's Keleti station after it was overwhelmed with desperate migrants trying
to reach western Europe.
Loud chants of ‘Germany, Germany’
and ‘Merkel, Merkel’ filled the streets outside the station, as several hundred
of the migrants at the station demonstrated following the closure.
But government spokesman Zoltan
Kovacs complained tonight that Hungary has been made the ‘scapegoat’ of
Europe’s migrant crisis, in an interview with BBC Newsnight.
